Description
FlowCast® SPR
The Premium Casting Epoxy for Small Projects
The Ideal Casting Epoxy for Weekend Woodworking Projects
FlowCast SPR is a two-component casting epoxy formulated for weekend woodworking projects. When used at one-inch thickness, the maximum volume, and under the recommended conditions, you can expect your projects to demold in 1 day. Use FlowCast SPR epoxy by itself for a water-clear finish or add our liquid or metallic pigments to create custom colors and effects. FlowCast SPR can be used to create beautiful small-scale live edge wood projects, such as coasters and serving trays. For larger projects (such as river tables) use our deep cast resin, FlowCast.
FlowCast SPR can be worked (trimmed, routed, sanded, and finished) using the same tools you have in your woodshop. With our ever-growing line of EcoPoxy® pigments and accessories, we can support you with everything you need for your small-scale epoxy projects.
