how to do epoxy inlay
I'm a seasoned industrial engineer with a keen interest in machine learning. Here to share insights on latest industry trends.
Epoxy inlay is a way to fill carved designs or imperfections in wood for a smooth, contrasting effect. First, select a clear epoxy resin and, if desired, colorants. Prepare your piece by sanding it smoothly and ensuring it's free of dust. Tape the underside of the piece to prevent leaks. Mix your epoxy according to the manufacturer's instructions. If adding color, do so after mixing the components. Carefully pour the epoxy into the voids. Use a woodworking or silicone spatula to spread the epoxy and remove any air bubbles. Allow it to cure completely; curing times vary by product. Once cured, sand the piece smooth starting with a coarse grit (around 80) and working up to a very fine grit (up to 2000) for a polished finish. Seal the wood and epoxy with a clear coat for protection. Always wear protective gear when working with epoxy.
