We now have 2 new sizes of epoxy in a new easy to dispense style bottle

Check our tips section for instructions on the new bottles.

I made some bottle cap pieces using my Epson printer and 'did NOT seal it' as I stated you should in our videos and as all videos I have seen about using ink jet prints with epoxy say you should. Guess what? It worked perfect without the sealing. The trick is to use a high quality glossy photo paper. I used Kodak Premium Picture Paper "HIGH GLOSS". This paper looks and feels like an actual photograph and works great. The reason this works without sealing is that it is more like plastic than paper and the epoxy won't soak in.

I think it is worth it to use a better paper and not have to mess with sealing the image using Mod Podge or similar. Below are the results. Now please note that my old Epson is on it's last leg and has several nozzles clogged so the printed image itself is not as clean as it should be but I think the results are stunning. And yes I am a pirate at heart.

Our sister site is UltraDome.com, where we have been making and selling equipment and supplies for epoxy doming for 10+ years. Recently I have been contacted several times by people looking for a good source for epoxy and supplies for the expanding market of making epoxy jewelry.

Since I have extensive experience with epoxy and have suppliers of the best epoxies available I have decide to expand our product line and open this site. We will start off offering the basic supplies but will be expanding our product line to include blank jewelry and findings.

I specialize in making the process as easy as possible and as cost effective as possible. Take our EZ-Measure epoxy bottles, our epoxy comes in a bottle that will measure out the epoxy and hardener for you. This also means there are no measuring cups to wash out. We also carry inexpensive disposable mixing cups and stirring sticks so when you're done you simply throw the mess in the trash.

Our epoxy is water clear and very special in that it is easy to use, it is a simple 2:1 mix and is very hard and rugged when cured. It does not have the acrid smell and dangerous vapors of most resins sold for crafts. Our epoxy also is very good at self degassing to help eliminate bubbles.
