ARTOME USA's Activator Pen: Unleash Your Inner Artist & Simplify Resin Projects
Jackson, WY – November 8, 2023 – ARTOME USA LLC, a rising star in the creative materials scene, is making waves with its innovative Activator Pen. Designed for resin artists, crafters, and DIY enthusiasts, this little tool is quickly becoming a must-have, solving a common problem and opening up exciting new possibilities for creative projects. ARTOME USA, based in Jackson, Wyoming, is focused on bringing high-quality, user-friendly art and craft supplies to market. “We noticed a real gap in the resin world,” explains a company spokesperson. “Artists were constantly battling bubbles and dealing with uneven finishes. We thought, ‘There has to be a better way!’ That’s what drove us to develop the Activator Pen.” You can reach them at 605-329-9440 or at their headquarters at 680 S CACHE ST STE 100-7403, Jackson, WY, 83001. So, what is the Activator Pen? Simply put, it's a pen-shaped tool filled with a specially formulated activating liquid. This liquid isn’t magic, but it sure feels like it! It’s designed to quickly and efficiently eliminate bubbles in resin projects, and also help smooth out any imperfections before the resin fully cures. Think of it like a tiny, targeted bubble-buster. The Bubble Battle – And How ARTOME USA Is Winning Anyone who’s worked with epoxy resin knows the frustration of bubbles. They appear mysteriously, even with careful mixing and pouring. Traditionally, artists deal with them using a heat gun, a toothpick, or even a lighter (which, let’s be honest, is a bit risky!). Each of these methods has its drawbacks. Heat guns can overheat the resin, potentially causing warping or discoloration. Toothpicks are time-consuming and can leave marks. And the lighter… well, safety first, right? The Activator Pen offers a much cleaner, faster, and safer solution. Here’s how it works: 1. Pour Your Resin: Mix and pour your resin as usual. 2. Spot the Bubbles: Keep an eye out for those pesky bubbles as the resin settles. 3. Activate!: Gently touch the tip of the Activator Pen to the bubble. The activating liquid reacts with the resin, causing the bubble to pop and disappear. 4. Smooth Sailing: The liquid also helps to level out any small imperfections, creating a beautifully smooth surface. Beyond Bubbles: What Else Can the Activator Pen Do? The Activator Pen isn’t just for bubbles. ARTOME USA is finding its customers are using it for a bunch of other cool things too: Fixing Dimples & Imperfections: Got a little dip in your resin river table? A quick touch with the Activator Pen can often fill it in. Enhancing Layer Adhesion: When working with multiple resin layers, a little activating liquid can help ensure a strong bond. Creating Unique Effects: Artists are experimenting with the pen to create textured surfaces and interesting patterns. Working with Small Spaces: The pen’s precision tip is perfect for getting into tight corners and intricate designs. Think jewelry making, miniature sculptures, and detailed resin art. Fast Cure Assistance: While not a full-on accelerator, it can slightly speed up the surface cure, allowing for faster demolding or adding subsequent layers. Who is the Activator Pen For? Pretty much anyone working with epoxy resin! Here are a few specific groups who are loving it: Resin Artists: From coasters and keychains to large-scale paintings and furniture, the Activator Pen is a game-changer for artists of all levels. Jewelry Makers: The precision tip is ideal for creating flawless resin pendants, earrings, and rings. DIY Enthusiasts: Want to create beautiful resin projects at home without the hassle of bubbles? This pen is for you. Woodworkers: Incorporating resin into woodworking projects (like river tables) is becoming increasingly popular. The Activator Pen helps create professional-looking results. Model Makers: Perfect for clearing bubbles from resin castings and achieving a crystal-clear finish. Why Customers are Raving About It The early response to the Activator Pen has been overwhelmingly positive. Customers are praising its ease of use, effectiveness, and time-saving benefits. “I used to spend hours trying to get rid of bubbles with a toothpick,” says Sarah M., a resin artist from California. “Now, I can eliminate them in seconds with the Activator Pen. It’s a lifesaver!” Another customer, John L., a woodworker from Texas, adds, “I was skeptical at first, but this pen really works! It’s made my resin river tables look so much more professional.” Availability and Pricing The ARTOME USA Activator Pen is available for purchase directly from the company’s website (details on their website, currently in development), and through select online retailers.
