In this post we will show you how to make synthetic resin pens and what you need for them!

You need:

  • JDiction Epoxy Resin (1:1 Mix Ratio)
  • JDiction Resin Colorant
  • Gloves
  • Measuring cups

  • Awl
  • Sandpaper

Pour epoxy resin ballpoint pen - This is how it works:

Preparation:
Have all the materials ready. Note that we recommend for your materials and workspace to be between 72-85°F.

Step 1: Put on the disposable gloves and mix our EPODEX PRO system according to the instructions in a ratio of 1: 1 by volume. Stir well until no more streaks can be seen.

Step 2: Place the ballpoint pen refill with the lid in the silicone mold. It is important that the lid stays on, otherwise the pen would no longer write.

Step 3: Pour the clear epoxy resin into the silicone mold and add glitter, drop-in pigments, dried flowers, etc. as you wish, using tweezers to insert them.

Step 4: Take the pens out of the mold after 24 hours. But check beforehand whether the resin is really already completely hardened, otherwise it can still deform during molding.

Step 5: After molding, expose the writing tip of the ballpoint pen with an awl. Then sanded and polished so that it is not too sharp-edged.

Step 6: With transparent castings, the use of silicone molds can lead to streaks on the edge.

@Jean: you can find many of them in popular online shops (Amazon, AliExpress, etc.) or even most desk furniture physical shops…
@Brenda: continue sanding with finer grit… Finish with a smoothing paste (some even use toothpaste!).

When the customer needs refill, what kind of refill do these take?

After sanding sharp edges, how do I shine the sanded parts that are sanded
