There may be the odd imperfection (tiny bubbles etc.) but every effort is made to ensure they look spectacular and provide an accurate representation of their properties.
Please note there may be a slight yellow tone to the resin over time, all resins will yellow slightly with time. Keep them out of direct sunlight to help prevent too much yellowing.
