How to cure uv resin without uv light?
Curing resin is one of those things that can make or break your project. If you don’t cure the resin properly, it can leave a cloudy appearance or even ruin your entire piece. But have no fear! There are several methods for curing your resin without using UV light.
Instead of exposing the resin to UV light, you can cure it by leaving it at room temperature for 72 hours.
Another way to cure uv resin without the use of a UV light is by leaving it at room temperature for 72 hours. You can use an oven or heat lamp to cure clear silicone rubber molds with this method.
First, you need to decide how long it will take for your mold to cure based on how deep it is and what temperature you have your oven set at. For example, if you have a shallow molds (1 inch deep), then it will take about 30 minutes for them to be fully cured in an oven that’s set at 300 degrees Fahrenheit (149 degrees Celsius).

Using heat can speed up the process of curing resin, which is why you can also cure resin in an oven.
A lot of newbies are surprised to learn that the process of curing resin with heat is very similar to curing it with UV light. Both involve the same chemical reaction, but using heat speeds up the process and makes it more effective.
To use this method, simply place your molds in an oven at 300°F (150°C) for 10 minutes. Then cool them down slowly over 12 hours or so before taking them out of their containers and removing any flash lines that may be left behind on your castings.
One advantage of this method over UV light curing is that it allows you to cure clear silicone rubber molds without having to touch-up or paint them afterwards—allowing you more freedom in creating intricate objects like jewelry pieces!
The time frame for curing depends on how deep your mold is and what temperature you have your oven set at.
The time frame for curing depends on how deep your mold is and what temperature you have your oven set at. The higher the temperature, the faster it cures.
The longer cure time is due to the amount of resin in your mold. If you had a thin layer of resin, it would dry much quicker than a thick slab or slab with many ornaments on top.
The lower humidity will also slow down the setting time but not by much because UV Resin needs some moisture to cure correctly and prevent cracking or warping during curing process and after curing has been completed.
The best thing about this method is it allows you to cure clear silicone rubber molds with no touch-ups or painting needed.
This method is the best for clear
silicone rubber molds, as it allows you to cure them without touch-ups or painting.
You can use this method on both soft and hard resins. It’s also great if you’re working in a small space with limited UV exposure. This method can be used for both traditional hard resins and urethane resin, too.
There are scientific ways to cure resin in a mold using an oven/heat lamp
There are, in fact, multiple ways to cure resin in a mold using heat.
The most common way is by using a heat lamp. A 100-watt bulb should work fine, but if you’re working on something larger than the average dollhouse furniture piece (or a smaller cat), you might need to go up to 150 watts or so. Just don’t use more than that! Too much light can cause your resin to cure prematurely and melt into an unusable mess.
To use a heat lamp: Turn it on and place it at an angle so that its light shines through all sides of your mold, then turn off all other lights in the room (for best results). Leave this setup alone for 24 hours—when it’s done curing, take out your project from its still-hot mold and let it cool down completely before handling it.
If you don’t want to buy another light fixture or spend time rearranging your studio space just for curing purposes, there are other options available too! You could also try placing several tea candles around your project; since they’re small and have no open flames burning near anything flammable like paper towels or paper napkins (that I know of), they should be safe enough even though they won’t do quite as good of a job as an actual heating source would—just keep them away from any open flames just in case!
