• Final top coats over river tables and live edge projects
• Clear coatings over charcuterie boards, serving boards, and trays
• Wood finishing, epoxy inlays, and artistic resin projects
• Small surface fills, cracks, and clear decorative coatings

Why Choose UVPoxy?

UVPoxy is a strong choice when your project needs a clear, glossy, self-leveling top coat. It is designed for coating applications, not deep casting projects.

• Made for flood coats and top coats: Ideal for clear coating wood, epoxy tables, bar tops, counters, and art projects.
• Clear glossy finish: Creates a smooth, high-gloss surface when mixed, poured, and applied properly.
• Good for final project protection: A useful final coating option after a deep pour project has cured, been flattened, and prepped.
• Pairs with pigments: Can be used clear or with compatible pigments for artistic effects.
• Better for thin coatings: Choose UVPoxy when you need a coating epoxy rather than a casting resin.

UVPoxy vs. FlowCast vs. FlowCast SPR

Choosing the right epoxy is one of the most important parts of a successful project. UVPoxy, FlowCast, and FlowCast SPR are designed for different types of pours.

When Should You Use UVPoxy?

Use EcoPoxy UVPoxy when your project needs a clear coating or flood coat. It is a good option for finishing the surface of a table, sealing artwork, adding a glossy top coat to a bar top, or applying a clear epoxy layer over a finished woodworking project.

UVPoxy is especially useful after a casting resin project has cured and been properly surfaced. For example, you may use EcoPoxy FlowCast for the deep river section of a table, then use UVPoxy later as the final clear top coat.

When Should You Use FlowCast Instead?

Use EcoPoxy FlowCast instead of UVPoxy when your project requires a deeper pour, such as a river table, large live edge slab project, thick casting, or deeper void fill. UVPoxy is for thin coating applications, while FlowCast is for deep casting applications.

When Should You Use FlowCast SPR Instead?

Use EcoPoxy FlowCast SPR when you are making a smaller resin casting project, such as a charcuterie board, serving board, coaster, tray, or shallow mold project up to 1" deep. UVPoxy is better for the final top coat or flood coat, while FlowCast SPR is better for the actual shallow casting pour.

Can You Add Colour to UVPoxy?

Yes. UVPoxy can be used clear or with compatible pigments to create coloured coatings, artistic effects, tinted top coats, or decorative resin finishes. For epoxy colour options, shop our mica powder pigments.

For most table top and flood coat projects, many customers prefer a clear UVPoxy finish so the wood grain, epoxy work, or artwork underneath remains visible.

Common Mistakes to Avoid With UVPoxy

UVPoxy is designed for coating applications, but good results still depend on proper prep, mixing, and application. Before you pour, keep these common mistakes in mind:

• Using UVPoxy for a deep pour: UVPoxy is a coating epoxy. For deep river tables and thick casting projects, use EcoPoxy FlowCast.
• Using UVPoxy for a shallow casting project: For charcuterie boards, serving boards, coasters, trays, and smaller pours up to 1" deep, use EcoPoxy FlowCast SPR.
• Poor surface prep: Make sure your surface is clean, dry, level, and properly prepared before applying a flood coat.
• Mixing incorrectly: Always follow EcoPoxy’s current mixing instructions for ratio, mixing time, working temperature, and cure time.
• Pouring too thick: UVPoxy is a thin-build coating epoxy. Do not treat it like a deep pour casting resin.
• Skipping your test piece: For new materials, pigments, or surfaces, test first before coating a finished project.

What Else Do You Need for a UVPoxy Project?

For most flood coat or table top epoxy projects, you may also need mixing supplies, spreaders, gloves, a clean work surface, and possibly pigments depending on the look you want. If your project involves a casting pour before the top coat, choose the right casting resin first.
