How to Reslin®?

Preparing the Reslin® components

It is very important to bring the Reslin® components to the right temperarture. Warm the Reslin® activator & oil in an oven during 20 minutes at 60°C (140°F).

Weighing the correct ratio

For the best results, it is essential to respect the correct ratio of Reslin® activator to Reslin® oil. This is 1 part Reslin® activator to 2 parts Reslin® oil.

Mixing

Stir the mixture carefully for several minutes. In this stage you can add additives to the Reslin® mixture like GlassRoxx, glass beads, mica powder, tint, natural elements, …

Mold filling

This way you do this depends on the composition of your Reslin® mixture. After filling the mold, let the mixture rest for 20 minutes before placing in the oven.

Heating the object in two phases

Phase 1: place your object in a convection oven and warm for 20 minutes at 90°C (200°F).
Phase 2: increase the temperature to 120°C (250°F) and warm again for 20 minutes.

Cooling & de-molding

After the second stage of heating, you can immediately proceed with cooling the object. Let you object cool off in the air or place the mold in cold water.

How much Reslin® do I need?

Before you start, you need to know how much material fits into your mold.
Here’s the easiest way to find out:
  1. Fill your silicone mold with water.
    Weigh the water – this number is your water weight.
  2. Use the water weight to calculate how much Reslin® you need.
If you’re making a natural piece (no additives) or just adding pigment (mica powder/tint)
→ Divide the water weight by 3.

That total equals your Reslin® mix:
  • 1 part Reslin® activator
  • 2 parts Reslin® oil
If you’re adding GlassRoxx / glass beads or StoneRoxx
  1. Multiply the water weight by 2.
  2. From that total weight:
    • 70% = GlassRoxx / glass beads / StoneRoxx
    • 30% = Reslin® mix (made up of ⅔ Reslin® oil and ⅓ Reslin® activator)
If you’re adding Jesmonite terrazzo chips
  1. Multiply the water weight by 1,5.
  2. From that total weight:
    • 50% = Terrazzo chips
    • 50% = Reslin® mix (made up of ⅔ Reslin® oil and ⅓ Reslin® activator)
Tip: Always mix your Reslin® components thoroughly before adding any pigments or decorative elements for an even, beautiful result.

Yes, you can put plastic Reslin® bottles in the oven to warm up as this should be done at low temperature (60°C).
This also makes it easier to weigh out the right amount of Reslin® that you need for making your object.
Always use one quantity of Reslin® activator for two quantities of Reslin® oil. The ratio is therefore 1 to 2.
Yes, Reslin® is a low-odor, solvent-free material that’s perfectly safe for indoor use.
 
No, you don’t have to! You can simply let your piece air dry, it will naturally harden in 24 to 48 hours, depending on temperature and humidity. If you prefer a faster result, you can cure your creation in a convection oven at a low temperature. In just 60 minutes, your object is fully hardened and ready to use!
Hot drinks: it is not recommended to pour hot drinks into a Reslin® object, as the heat may affect the structure. 
Candles: Reslin® is not suitable for candles, as the flame may cause the material to burn. 
Sticky spots can occur when the Reslin® is not mixed properly. This can lead to residues of the Reslin® activator forming strings and not being fully activated. 
Yes, all silicone molds can be used for working with Reslin®. But depending on the type of silicone mold that you use, your object may have a satin or a matt finish after demolding.
Yes, you can add different materials to the Reslin® blend, such as:
  • Pigment powders, alcohol ink or natural mica for colour.
  • GlassRoxx® or Reslin® glass beads for texture and extra colour.
  • Jesmonite flakes, coffee, herbs, dried flowers, spices and even for unique effects.
