Over the years I have posted my feelings on the importance of knowing the specifications/ physical properties of cured and uncured resin. In recent threads there has been some posting about this subject and I thought it might be interesting for us to share with each other the brand we use and specifications and put it on the table for all to compare in an open setting. If you don't have them try to get them if they will supply them. Lets see at least on paper how our resin preference's stand up to each other.

I use Delta Resins:
