Cast your own distinctive turning blanks with TotalBoat Cast N Turn Clear Urethane Casting and Turning Resin. Use with a pressure pot for bubble-free results! This two-part urethane resin can be tinted, and is ideal for encapsulations to make hybrid turning blanks from stabilized wood and resin. Extended 12 minute working time gives you more time to create larger castings and get them in the pressure pot before the resin starts to set. Cures to an ultra clear hard plastic that turns easily without cracking or chipping, and polishes to a high gloss. Compared to epoxy, urethane is great for DIY wood turning applications such as bowl blanks, knife scales, pen blanks, bottle stopper blanks, duck calls and more.
Available in a Quart Kit (1 pint Part A and 1 pint Part B).
Preferred by DIY Makers and Woodturners for its Clarity, Hardness, Ease of Turning - and Simpler Mix Ratio
TotalBoat Cast N Turn urethane resin makes it easy to create amazing, bubble-free, high-impact pressure castings for hybrid turning blanks that turn like a dream and can be polished to a high gloss. Comparing casting resin vs epoxy resin? Urethane is ideal for casting turning blanks because it cures faster and is ready to machine sooner than epoxy. It's also optically clearer. Cured pieces are rigid, high-impact plastic that can handle the heat and pressure of turning on a lathe, without melting, cracking, or chipping. The simple 1 to 1 mix ratio is by volume - not weight - so you don't need a scale to measure accurately. Compare to other clear slow casting kits.IMPORTANT MIXING NOTE! To avoid the potential for moisture contamination from wooden stir sticks, do not use wooden stir sticks to mix Cast N Turn components. Plastic stir sticks are strongly advised.
