Read both component safety sheets, prevent exposure and plan cleanup and waste handling before mixing.
Read the guide →Safety & handling
Prepare the workspace. Then prepare the resin.
Prepare for an epoxy project with source-led handling guidance, current safety data and practical checks before mixing.
Before mixing
- Read the current SDS for both resin and hardener.
- Follow specified ventilation, glove, eye and skin protection guidance.
- Keep children, pets, food and drinks out of the work area.
- Check the batch, depth and temperature limits together.
- Know the product-specific exposure and spill instructions.
Before using the finished object
- Allow the documented cure under the specified conditions.
- Do not equate dry-to-touch with full service readiness.
- Check heat, sunlight, cleaning and food-contact restrictions.
- Remember pigments and inclusions can change the system.
- Ask the manufacturer about unsupported uses.
Read the detailed guidance.

Epoxy and food contact: understand the limits of a claim
Check the exact resin, intended contact conditions and complete finished object before making food-contact claims.
Read the guide →Safety
Remove epoxy from surfaces and skin without spreading the problem
Separate skin cleanup from tool and surface removal, and choose methods around the resin state and substrate.
Read the guide →General checklist, not an exhaustive risk assessment. Use exact product safety data and qualified help for your circumstances.
