How Resin Artists Use This System

Baloon Catch transforms multi-layer resin work from guesswork into repeatable science. The tracker monitors ambient temperature and humidity while you pour, calculating precise gel times and recoat windows based on your specific resin formula ratios. Every project lives on your cure rack with real-time phase indicators showing liquid, gelling, window open, and demould-ready states.

The layer composer lets you log exact additive percentages for mica powder, tints, glitter, and inclusions. When you pour layer three onto a tacky layer two, the app records the exact timestamp and environmental conditions. Peak exothermic temperatures get tracked automatically, building a thermal profile for each piece that helps predict outcomes on future pours.

Community members contribute to the fault atlas by pinning defects directly onto photos of finished pieces. The tracer algorithm reads fault locations back to specific layer parameters, revealing correlations between yellowing and peak temperatures above 37 degrees, or between bubbles and pour timing during gel phase. Shared knowledge accelerates everyone's learning curve.

Core Capabilities For Serious Makers

Mould Library Manager

Store specifications for round coasters, hex coasters, serving trays, and sphere moulds. Each mould template remembers dimensions, volume calculations, and optimal layer thickness ranges based on community data.

Visual Cure Schedules

Timeline charts display working time, gel phase, recoat window, and demould readiness as color-coded horizontal bars. Zoom out to five-day view for deep-pour formulas that cure slowly at room temperature.

Layer Chemistry Logger

Record exact composition for every layer with percentage tracking for additives. Note mica powder at four percent, fine glitter inclusions, or tint ratios. Historical data helps replicate successful color matches months later.

Live Temperature Monitor

Track peak exothermic temperatures during cure. The app flags when clear resin exceeds safe thresholds that cause yellowing or cracking. Set custom alerts for heat-sensitive projects with delicate inclusions.

Fault Documentation System

Photograph finished pieces and pin defects directly onto the image. Tag bubbles, cloudiness, incomplete cure, or yellowing. The tracer correlates faults with specific layer parameters to identify root causes.

Community Fault Atlas

Browse ten documented fault types contributed by experienced resin artists. Each entry includes gradient temperature visualizations, common trigger conditions, and proven prevention techniques shared across the network.

The Complete Workflow From Pour To Polish

Project Planning Phase

  • Select mould type and verify dimensions match your physical mould inventory
  • Choose resin formula ratio based on project depth requirements
  • Calculate total resin weight needed accounting for all planned layers
  • Set environmental baseline by recording current temperature and humidity
  • Define layer count and approximate thickness for each pour stage

Active Cure Management

  • Monitor cure rack showing all in-progress projects with countdown timers
  • Receive window-open notifications when tacky layers are ready for next pour
  • Track liquid-to-gel phase transitions with automated status updates
  • Log peak temperatures and compare against historical successful pours
  • Document each layer with timestamp, composition notes, and environmental snapshot
