A few weeks ago I had my first tutorial showing you how to work with an open back bezel. The finished piece looked great from the front.
The back was a different story. When I pulled the tape off the back of the bezel after the resin cured (the tape holds the resin in place when it is wet) I got this messy edge. The left side is very uneven. But I continued to work on the front of the piece hoping to repair this later.
This week I completed the repair. I poured one more layer of Envirotex Lite resin onto the back of the piece. It domed perfectly and now I have a very finished smooth back. I plan to wear this bezel on a necklace, so if the back ever becomes visible it will look as professional as the front.
Thank you... I am enjoying this series and the shrinky dinks were great as well... that post brought back some super fun memories with my daughter!
