Cloudy or hazy areas your resin pieces?

There are many reasons why your resin pieces might turn out cloudy or hazy. Besides here are 11 reasons of the most common culprits:

1. Incomplete Mixing:
   Thoroughly mix the resin and hardener according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Incomplete mixing can result in cloudy areas and inconsistent curing.
2. Ratio Rumble: Not measuring the parts exactly? Messing with the resin-to-hardener ratio can cause curing problems and cloudiness.
3. Cold Resin and Hardener:
   Cold temperatures can make resin and hardener more viscous and difficult to mix. Ensure that both components are at room temperature before combining them. You can use IBRAYAs Incubator that leads to better curing conditions.
4. Moisture Contamination:
   Moisture in the environment or on the substrate can cause hazy areas in the cured resin. Work in a dry environment, and make sure your materials are free from moisture.
5. Pouring Too Quickly:
   Pouring resin too quickly can introduce air bubbles, leading to hazy areas. Furthermore pour slowly and use a torch or heat gun to release trapped bubbles.
6. Air Bubbles:
   Inadequate removal of air bubbles during the mixing or pouring process can result in hazy areas. Moreover use a torch or heat gun to eliminate bubbles.
7. Humidity Levels:
   High humidity levels can affect the curing process and contribute to hazy areas, also consider working in a humidity-controlled environment.
8. Dust or Debris:
   Dust or debris in the workspace can settle on the resin surface, causing haziness, so working in a clean environment and cover the project to prevent foreign particles from contaminating the resin.
9. Excessive Exothermic Reaction:
   An exothermic reaction generates heat during the curing process, then if the resin cures too quickly due to a large mass or external factors, it can result in hazy areas. Allow the mixed resin to acclimate to the working environment before pouring.
10. Overheating with Torch or Heat Gun:
    Besides excessive heat from a torch or heat gun can sometimes cause haziness, and using the torch or heat gun with caution, keeping it at a safe distance to avoid overheating the resin.
11. Resin Reproach: Low-quality resin just doesn’t cut it, lastly invest in a good-quality resin suitable for your project.

Furthermore carefully reviewing your process and addressing these potential issues should help improve the clarity of your resin art. Always follow the specific guidelines provided by the resin manufacturer for the best results.
