Jesmonite AC100 is a two-part system made up of an acrylic polymer liquid and a mineral resin powder. When mixed together, they create a thick, pourable liquid that can be poured into a mould to create unique pieces. Jesmonite is solvent-free and doesn't contain any volatile organic compounds (VOCs), making it safer to use. It cures quickly and is usually ready to remove from the mould in 20-30 minutes. You can customize your creations by using Jesmonite pigments to create bespoke colours.
Jesmonite AC100 has the versatility and adaptability to work for a whole variety of applications. From home décor such as coasters, ornaments and trays to larger scale projects, there's something for every maker.
