  • Please put on your your protective gear! Gloves and a face mask!
  • Grab your UV Resin and slow spread it on top of your magnet making sure to fill every spot!
  • I use the silicon spreader that came with my resin kit to help spread the resin along my projects. 
  • Once you have spreaded an evenly amount of resin grab your uv lap and place over the magnet and press the button. Mine is has an auto shut off. I like to place it under twice.

  • These 3M self adhesive magnets from amazon are the best.
    • Just take your sticky part and place in the middle of your magnet and then place your magnet on top
  • That is all for a shiny looking Texas magnet!
