CONSISTENT COLOR MATCH
Between Layers, and Between Projects
SnowWhite uses a simple 2:1 mix ratio and is highly pigmented. It has been formulated for large casting applications, such as river tables or large furniture pieces. The high opacity, pure white color beautifully contrasts wood grain in live edge projects and allows the reclaimed wood to shine.
SnowWhite consists of fillers and extra-white pigments suspended in epoxy resin allowing for a uniform and incredibly vivid white finish. It has excellent air release and low exothermic heat buildup to allow for easy casting while preventing stress cracking. Compatibility of the cured system with a variety of finishing methods and products ensures that desired custom finishes can be achieved.
Times based on a 38mm (1.5”) deep casting at a volume of 14L. Individual project times may vary depending on pour depth, volume, ambient temperature, and humidity.

Mix resin for 1 minute before adding hardener. Add hardener to resin pail and mix thoroughly for 4 to 5 minutes. For less than full kit mixing, a 2:1 by volume (3.1:1 by weight) mix ratio must be used. Always use hand and eye protection when working with or near epoxies.
Working area should be clean, dry, and free of dust. SnowWhite can be poured at 13-38mm (0.5-1.5”) per layer. SnowWhite will not shrink while curing under normal conditions. However, it may slowly fill cracks and voids in live edge wood pieces, causing the resin level to drop. Be prepared to add more epoxy as needed.
Epoxy releases heat when curing. For pours of 30L or more, multiple thinner pours may be necessary to prevent overheating. Fans blowing across the curing epoxy may also be used to help dissipate heat. For best adhesion between layers, wait until the first layer is tacky to touch before pouring a second layer. If the previous layer is no longer tacky, sand with 220 grit sandpaper and wipe down before pouring another layer.
