Polyester resin is mentioned in the Reader's Digest Family Book of Things to Make and Do in the section on Acrylics. A few paragraphs describe how to make castings, as well as recommending that flowers should be treated with preservative before being embedded. Teasels are one of their preferred objects, where as other people prefer pancakes, or making casts of door knobs or leaf shapes. One way of making casts is to make a model from plasticine or similar, then a mould of that using liquid latex, and then to mix the hardener and resin and pour it into the latex mould. Some instructions that are vaguely similar to the Reader's Digest ones can be found on the Resin-supplies website.
Anyway, I finally bought some, after looking at pictures in that Reader's Digest book for many years. The hardener may cause burns. I am unsure what I am going to make a model of yet. I could embed pink paisley or one of my eyes, or make models of ginger ale or nuclear bunkers.
