thanks that's useful info...yeah, i gathered that it was pretty toxic, i'm no stranger to toxic... i have a respirator and gloves suitable for handleing chemicals... i went with resin because i need a really perminent seal and i have ideas for making jars into intersting candle holders so not only does the clear coat have to be completely seemless and crystal clear, but heat resistant as well.
i considered modgepodge , but i don't think that'll have the same seemless result...as expected i'm just going to have to experiment...if this doesn't work then i'll have to spring for more expensive coatings that seem to be geared more towards my purpose...i actually found a great alternative clearcoat that is super strong and seemless and completely non-toxic, and heat resistant, its an industrial product made for sealing floors, but its like 80 or 90 bucks for a gallon... so i hoped to avoid that kind of expense...
anyway, i was just looking for easy answers before i started experiments...
thanks for the advice, i'll let you know how it turns out...or write about it in my journal or something.
