TAKIMO TKEP 2-Gallon Epoxy Resin Kit, 3× UV-Resistant, 1:1 Mix
Product description
The 2-gallon TAKIMO TKEP epoxy resin kit gives you a generous volume for larger pours and repeated creative projects. Its clear liquid format works for casting and coating, from tabletop surfaces to jewelry and crafts.
A 1:1 mixing ratio by volume makes it straightforward to measure the two parts for a project. The self-leveling formula is designed to spread across a surface for a smooth, high-gloss finish.
Its 3× UV-resistant, non-yellowing formula is intended to help preserve a clear appearance over time, making it useful for pieces where color and detail should remain visible.

Tips for day-to-day use
Measure the resin and hardener by volume at the stated 1:1 ratio, then follow the product directions for mixing and pouring. For a glossy surface coating, the manufacturer recommends pouring in 1/4-inch layers. This approach suits work such as tabletop finishes and smaller craft pieces, where a controlled pour helps create an even surface. The formula is designed to help bubbles rise, while the self-leveling consistency supports a smooth finish across the work area.
For casting, molds, jewelry, or trays, the clear finish lets the appearance of wood, pigments, and other inclusions remain part of the design. The 2-gallon size also suits projects that need more material than a small-format kit, such as bar tops or larger tabletop work. Its UV-resistant formula is a relevant feature for pieces displayed in brighter areas, and the high-gloss finish adds a polished look to decorative or functional surfaces.
Buyers often appreciate the kit’s usefulness for molds, bowls, and trays, as well as its clear directions and ease of use. Feedback is mixed on clarity and curing results, so follow the product directions closely when preparing a pour. The listed full cure time is 12 hours.
Box contents
The package is listed as a two-piece epoxy resin kit. For a project, use the two parts in equal volumes as directed, the kit’s 1:1 ratio is designed to make measuring the mix clear and consistent.
Is it worth it?
Worth considering if you need a clear, high-gloss epoxy for projects ranging from jewelry and crafts to larger tabletop coatings. Compared with choosing a small kit for occasional detail work, this 2-gallon format provides a larger quantity for substantial surfaces or several pours. The combination of self-leveling application, a 1:1 mix, and 3× UV resistance makes it especially suited to makers who want a glossy finish while keeping the underlying colors and details visible.
