look at the root name of the link you posted. RESIN is the clear stuff that is used for encasing things it comes as a can of clear syrup and a small bottle of catalyst that is stirred in thoroughly and sets up hard. It is sold online, in hardware stores (casting resin) and hobby & craft shops like Michaels and Hobby Lobby. You will need to buy some and practice before you do something critical. There isn’t any substitute and no way to make it at home. If you are really serious, it is cheaper to buy a gallon than 4 quarts and until you measure out what you need and add the catalyst it stores well.
