How do you make resin based Aragocrete?

[Rhodophyta]

At an Aragocrete workshop in Cleveland, Ohio, one of the members showed some coral tables made with a resin and Aragonite instead of Portland cement. I remember that the form had to be lined with wax paper since otherwise the resin would "annex" the sand mold. I think the resin was available at Home Depot, but I'm not sure what it was named. Any help and tips on how to make this kind of Aragocrete would be appreciated.

That sounds really cool, I would also like to hear more about it.


I can imagine using epoxy, but I can also see how expensive that would be...

I would use this product:

It is a super tough, lightweight casting plastic. I would bet it is reef safe too. The guys at the company could easily tell you whether it would be safe to use. You can get it in trial sizes too.
