I have seen much discussion about it so I thought I would post a tip.

I found a UV light for curing resin from a 3D printer and it plugs in to the wall so it cures quickly with NO tack. No need to put a finish coat over the resin. Amazon carries it for $18. Compared to the $50+ for the flashlight style it's a pretty easy decision.

Here's the link to the one I bought:

Very interesting! Have you used it?

Absolutely! Got it two weeks ago and been working with it. That's how I know it cures without the resin staying tacky.

The only drawback is the wall plug, IMO. It limits where you can use it a little. I sometimes set up in fishing flea markets to try and support my addiction by selling flies. They are usually in school gyms so power outlets are limited but other than that it wouldn't be an issue.
Great! Thanks for posting your find!
