Enamel Utee
what works easier than UTEE? (ultra thick embossing enamel)?
I just bought the UTEE and I'm not too happy with is managebility. It doesn't even fill my frames all the way and I just don't like it. What can I use that works just as well? What kind of gloss or resin should I try? And where can I get it?
Depending on the size of your frames, you'll probably want to use a clear 2-part epoxy resin (or even a 2-part epoxy glue like Devcon's 2 Ton if it's small). The most common brand of epoxy resin for crafts is Envirotex Lite Pour On, but there are other brands too. The new 'Easy Cast' tweaked epoxy could also be used though it's not quite as good for some things as regular epoxy resins.
You could also use things like clear fingernail polish, polyurethane, dimensional white glues like Diamond Glaze/etc, even several coats of thinned white glue, etc.
If you want to read more about "filling frames" with clear epoxy resin, check out this page at my site under the category about 2/3 of the way down the list called "IN PERMANENT CELLS":
http://glassattic.com/polymer/other_materials.htm
That page will also have more info on brand names of epoxy resin, where you can buy them etc.
And you might also want to check out my answers in these previous questions about epoxy resin:
