A 1:1 clear coating epoxy for tabletops and countertops. EcoPoxy's data sheet limits coats to 3.2 mm (1/8 in), gives 30 to 40 minutes of working time, and a 4 to 10 hour window for the next coat.

What the numbers mean for a pour
Pours needed with a limit of 0.13 in per pour. Worked out with the layer planner.

What the manufacturer says
Paraphrased from the manufacturer’s documents.
Intended use
- UVPoxy is a 1:1 clear coating epoxy for tabletops, countertops, wood finishing and fluid art rather than for castings.Page
UV and color
- It is formulated to resist yellowing from UV but EcoPoxy does not recommend it for permanent outdoor use.TDS
Layering
- Coats thicker than 3.2 mm are not recommended because they cure too fast for bubbles to escape; build thickness with multiple layers instead.Page
Heat
- The TDS lists a 100 g gel time of 45 minutes, a peak exotherm of 121°C (250°F) and 53 minutes to peak exotherm.TDS
- Cured UVPoxy has a DSC glass transition temperature of 36°C (97°F).TDS
Other notes
- The TDS gives a theoretical density of 1.07 g/cm3 (0.039 lb/in3) for the cured resin, not for the mixed liquid.TDS
- UVPoxy should be mixed by hand with a stir stick; a power mixer is not advised because it whips in air.Page
Coverage
- The guide sizes resin as length x width x thickness in inches (1/16 in for seal coats, 1/8 in for flood coats) times 16.387 for millilitres, plus 5-10%.Instr.
Surface preparation
- EcoPoxy recommends a thin UVPoxy seal coat on every surface before the flood coat, and porous pieces may need 2-3 seal coats.Instr.
Safety data sheet summary
Signal word: DangerSDS B
Part A hazard statements
- H317 May cause an allergic skin reaction
Part B hazard statements
- H314 Causes severe skin burns and eye damage
- H318 Causes serious eye damage
- H361 Suspected of damaging fertility or the unborn child
- H335 May cause respiratory irritation
Protective equipment
- Wear chemical-resistant, impervious gloves and inspect them before use.
- Wear safety glasses or goggles for Part A.
- For Part B, use safety glasses with side shields or goggles and consider a face shield against splashes.
- Wear an approved respirator if engineering controls cannot keep airborne concentrations below exposure limits.
Ventilation
- Use only with adequate ventilation that keeps vapor, mist and dust below workplace exposure limits.
- Part B should likewise be used only with adequate ventilation.
A summary, not the full SDS. Read the SDS for both parts before use and follow its first-aid section in case of exposure. This is not medical advice.
Where the manufacturer’s documents disagree
- Specific gravity or density, Part A: 1.172 (TDS, specific gravity Part A at 22°C / 72°F, ASTM D1475) vs. Density 1.18 (SDS Part A section 9, no unit printed) (TDS, SDS A). The table shows the value from the TDS.
- Specific gravity or density, Part B: 0.969 (TDS, specific gravity Part B at 22°C / 72°F, ASTM D1475) vs. Relative density 0.98 (water = 1); Density 8 lbs per gallon (SDS Part B section 9) (TDS, SDS B). The table shows the value from the TDS.
- Time between pours: Add next layer while previous layer is tacky to touch, 4-10 hours (TDS, application guide, product-page application text) vs. Additional layers should be poured when the previous layer has reached set to touch, then scuffed (product-page FAQ) (TDS, Page). The table shows the value from the TDS.
