This weekend I took a stab at casting
some flowers (Thistles- go figure) into bottle stoppers.
I'm using Polyester Resin.
Ignoring the problems with them floating and air bubbles,
the one thing I didn't expect was that they basically
got bleached. The color was gone, where their tops
had been purple was white.
Anyone got a trick for preserving the color? So far I've got a few
I've covered with lacquer to try out.
Thanks
