I wrote a post at the beginning of the month how I had this weird resin curing event happen. The resin "cured" on top, but slid off the pendant and oozed goo from the sides. At the time, I thought it was a one time event, so I didn't get to worried about it.
Apparently, I was mistaken.
When it happened a second time (only to one pendant), I thought maybe it was because I was at the end of the bottles of resin and hardener. Resin HATES water, so I thought maybe some condensation had gotten in and messed with something. I started new bottles for the next pour.
It happened again.
The entirely bizarre thing is that it's only happening to one (or this time two) pendants. I do remember that one of the pendants this happened to was one of the last ones to get poured and had more bubbles than the others. As a result, I had to spend a bit more time using the "straw method" to get out the bubbles. (Sorry, won't explain that method as I don't want to be responsible for someone hurting themselves. It can be dangerous if you don't know what you're doing.) I'm still thinking it could be excess moisture.
Arrgh. I obviously need to show some love to resin gods here soon.
