I made the mistake the first time to use this in my house. I knew it required some ventilation so I worked by the window with the fans no. I didn't expect it to be THAT stinky. Hard to describe the smell but it lingers in the room/house for DAYS. The pieces came out clear. However, I learned that if you do it in layers and you have color in your last layer, be very careful. The pieces will shrink a bit in the mold while while curing. If you are not careful, your last layer may cover the first few layers if you move the mold or wait too long to pour the layers (and it runs down the side of the mold). The second time I used it, I must have used too much catalyst because the piece got EXTREMELY hot and cracked the crack ruined the embedded piece (and I could not take it out). I had set up the mold outside in 90+ degree heat. I followed the number of drops from the back of the can but should have reduced it based on the outside temp.
The Easy Cast Epoxy resin is so much easier for me to handle. I just have to make sure to use equal amounts and stir set amount of time. Only sad thing is you can't do deep layers with Epoxy you have to wait for one day for the layer to cure before pouring the next one.
