Disclaimer

In plain English

Our calculators are tools to help you estimate resin amounts and project costs. While we strive for accuracy, we can't guarantee results will be perfect for every unique situation. Always verify calculations for important projects, add safety buffers, and use your best judgment. We earn commissions on product recommendations but only suggest items we believe are quality options. You're responsible for your own project results and safety.

Calculator accuracy and limitations

Educational and estimation purposes

The calculators on Resin Calculators (resincalculators.com) are provided for educational and estimation purposes only. They are designed to help resin crafters calculate approximate amounts of materials needed for projects based on industry-standard formulas and common practices.

No guarantee of accuracy

While we make every effort to ensure our calculators are accurate and use industry-standard formulas, we do not guarantee that calculations will be 100% accurate for every situation. Factors that can affect accuracy include:

• Irregular or complex project shapes not accounted for in simplified formulas
• Variations in resin density and viscosity between brands and formulations
• Temperature and humidity conditions affecting resin behavior
• Measurement errors in user-provided dimensions
• Unusual mold shapes or surface absorption characteristics
• User experience level and technique variations

User responsibility

You are solely responsible for verifying that calculator results are appropriate for your specific project before purchasing materials or beginning work. We strongly recommend:

• Adding a 10-20% safety buffer to all material calculations
• Testing with small batches before large expensive projects
• Double-checking measurements and calculations
• Consulting manufacturer specifications for your specific resin product
• Using professional judgment based on your experience and project requirements

No liability for project failures

Resin Calculators and its operators are not liable for any damages, losses, or expenses resulting from:

• Incorrect calculator results or calculation errors
• Material waste or shortage due to following calculator recommendations
• Failed projects, ruined materials, or wasted time
• Financial losses from purchasing incorrect amounts of supplies
• Any other damages resulting from use of our calculators or information

Report errors

If you discover an error in any calculator, please contact us immediately so we can investigate and correct it. We take accuracy seriously and will address confirmed errors within 24 hours.

Affiliate relationships and compensation disclosure

Material connection disclosure

In accordance with Federal Trade Commission (FTC) guidelines, we disclose that Resin Calculators has affiliate relationships with various companies and may receive compensation when you click certain links and make purchases.

How we earn money

When you click on product recommendation links on our Resin Supplies page or within calculator pages, and subsequently make a purchase, we may earn a commission. This applies to links to:

• Amazon Associates: We earn commissions on qualifying purchases through Amazon affiliate links
• Direct brand affiliate programs: We may earn commissions from resin manufacturers and suppliers

No additional cost to you

Using our affiliate links does not cost you any extra money. The price you pay is the same whether you use our link or go directly to the retailer. The retailer pays us a small commission from their profit margin.

Our product recommendation standards

We only recommend products that we believe offer good value and quality for resin crafters. Our recommendations are based on:

• Product quality and performance
• User reviews and community feedback
• Price-to-value ratio
• Availability and reliability of suppliers

We do not recommend products solely because they offer higher commission rates. If a product is low-quality or overpriced, we won't recommend it regardless of potential earnings.

All opinions expressed about products and supplies are our own honest assessments. Commission relationships do not influence our calculator formulas, accuracy, or educational content. The calculators themselves contain no affiliate bias—the math is the math.
