How To Resin A Watercolor Painting

 

  1. Complete your watercolor painting on paper sized to fit your wood panel. Once the painting is dry, mount the artwork onto the panel using your chosen adhesive - whether it's a spray adhesive, a glue stick, or a brush-on adhesive.
    💡 TIP: For optimal results, smooth out any wrinkles or air pockets by either using your hands or gently rolling a brayer over the top. This ensures the paper is securely and evenly attached to the panel, with no air pockets.

  2. Seal your work using a spray sealant, allowing it to dry completely according to the label directions. Choose a sealant that dries clear, offers UV protection, and is designated safe for watercolor.

  3. Wearing gloves, measure and mix the ArtResin according to instructions. 
    💡 TIP: If you're not sure how much ArtResin you need, enter the dimensions of your piece into our Resin Calculator.

  4. Pour the resin in the center of your artwork and use a flat-edged spreading tool to guide the resin over the entire surface.

  5. Use an Artist’s Torch to remove bubbles.

  6. Cover and all the resin to cure. After 24 hours, the resin will be dry to the touch and will be fully cured after 72 hours.
