Introduction: Say Goodbye to Scratches on Resin-Coated Wood
Over time, even the most beautifully finished wooden surfaces coated with epoxy resin can lose their shine. Whether it’s a scratch from daily use or dullness from wear and tear, your epoxy-coated furniture or tabletops may not look like they once did.
But you don’t have to strip the whole piece and start over.
With Magnifico 12H Resin, you can repair scratches, restore gloss, and upgrade the finish of your wood surfaces quickly and efficiently. It’s a fast-curing, scratch-repairing epoxy resin ideal for both minor fixes and full surface recoating.
Why Resin Finishes Get Scratched
Epoxy resin is tough—but not invincible. Wood surfaces like tables, countertops, and decor pieces see regular use and are prone to:
- Surface scratches from utensils, tools, or movement
- Loss of gloss from friction or cleaning chemicals
- Small chips near edges or corners
- Wear patterns on high-contact zones like dining tables
Rather than replacing the whole coat, you can refresh the finish with a new layer of resin, especially using fast-curing resins like Magnifico 12H.
Why Use Magnifico 12H Resin for Scratch Repair?
Magnifico 12H Resin is specially formulated for:
- Quick reapplication (cures within 12–14 hours)
- High-gloss finishes that restore original shine
- Strong adhesion to old resin layers after light sanding
- User-friendly mixing and pouring, even for beginners
- Ideal for wood surface coating, repair jobs, and tabletop updates
This makes it a top choice for both DIY furniture updates and professional woodworking touch-ups.
Step-by-Step: How to Repair Scratched Resin Wood Surfaces
1. Clean the Surface
Remove all dust, oils, and debris. Use a microfiber cloth with mild soap and water. Let it dry completely.
2. Light Sanding
Gently sand the scratched or dull area using 320–600 grit sandpaper. This helps the new resin layer bond better with the surface.
3. Mix the Resin
Combine Magnifico 12H Resin and Hardener in a 2:1 ratio by volume. Stir for 3–4 minutes until well-blended.
4. Apply the Resin
Pour the resin over the scratched or dull area. Use a spreader or brush for controlled application. The resin will self-level.
5. Pop the Bubbles
Use a heat gun or kitchen torch to remove surface bubbles immediately after pouring.
6. Cure Without Disturbance
Let the resin cure for 12–14 hours in a dust-free environment. Avoid touching until fully hardened.
Pro Tip: Full Tabletop Coat for a Uniform Finish
If the scratches are widespread or you want a uniform gloss, consider recoating the entire tabletop. A thin, even coat of Magnifico 12H Resin will refresh the entire surface and protect it from future wear.
