Using this specific product
WiseBond Deep Pour Epoxy is listed here as the Deep-pour casting epoxy version for deep pours and tabletops. For casting resin, the useful question is not simply whether the surface looks finished—it is whether the exact next-action milestone shown above has been reached.
Before you start
- Confirm the package says Deep-pour casting epoxy; related versions can use different timing.
- For deep pours and tabletops, pay particular attention to accurate mixing, mold material, mass and room temperature.
- The source gives no conditions for this time.
How to check readiness
Check the casting itself for flex or tack before demolding. The sheet gives gel in 18 to 24 hours for 100 g at 77°F. Before recoating, confirm the first coat matches the manufacturer’s stated condition; if the maximum window passed, check whether sanding is required. The sheet says wait 30 days before incidental food contact.
Avoid this mistake
Demold time is not necessarily full mechanical cure.
