Resin can be both naturally occurring and synthetically made. It is a viscous substance: when cured, it becomes a rigid polymer-like substance. There are many industrial applications for resin, and also many types of resins. In this blog, we will discuss how helpful it can be to have a resin remover spray on hand while the resin is applied.    

What is a resin used for?  

There are multiple different types of resin:  

• Polyester resins  
• Phenolic resins  
• Alkyd resins  
• Polycarbonate resins  
• Polyamide resins  
• Polyurethane resins  
• Silicone resins  
• Epoxy resins  
• Polyethylene resins  
• Acrylic resins  
• Polystyrene resins  
• Polypropylene resins  

Each of these resins has their own uses. Acrylic resins are used for coating and adhesives, while polypropylene resins for toys and electronic components. Although these resins are used for many applications, a resin remover spray would still be helpful in situations where they are present.  

Why choose a resin remover spray?  

A spray resin remover makes any resin removal easier; it can be more effective in industrial settings than other resin removers. In industrial settings where a lot of resin is present, it is a priority to have a type of remover on hand since excess resin can lead to equipment shutdown.
