    Default UV curing solutions


    What do you guys use to cure UV resin? I use a Loon torch to flash cure, then put jig heads outside in sunlight to finish curing. Saw some UV resin curing boxes online that were enclosed and had a small turntable....they range from $40-$50. I also saw UV lamps...just curious what y'all have used...

    My favorite way is the sun. I UV lite when I'm in a hurry and the sun won't help me.

    I read some and learned that a certain wave length works best. Get this wrong and you will be waiting around more than needed. I use cheap Chinese resin stuff. I recommend being very vigilant about keeping your fingers clean, as once it gets in your eyes it burns like gasoline. LOL

    I quick set the stuff with a flashlight, then finish outdoors.
    Maybe they will bite this one……
