Use Cases

Ideal for temporary molds of body parts like the face and torso. Suitable for casting materials such as plaster, wax, clay, and fast urethane resins. For soft, skin-like castings, use soft silicone rubber.

Instructions

Preparation

  • Store and use in a dry environment at room temperature.
  • Store in a cool area (15°C - 31°C) for 24 hours before use if the powder gets warm during storage/shipping.
  • Use as soon as possible due to limited shelf life.
  • Avoid moisture contact with unused powder.
  • Ensure adequate ventilation during use.

Practice

  • Practice by making a mold of a small object before attempting larger models.

Applying A Release Agent

  • Does not stick to most surfaces.
  • Use a release preparation to prevent mechanical lock to hair when molding the head.
  • Apply cholesterol-based hair conditioner to hair-covered areas before application.

Measuring

  • Mix 1 part water to 1 part powder by volume.
  • Pack the powder firmly into the measuring cup.
  • Adjust water level to change mixture consistency.

Water Quality

  • High mineral content water may cause lumpiness or improper setting.
  • Use distilled water if water quality is questionable.

Temperature Of The Water

  • At 27°C (80°F), working time is 8 minutes, and demold time is 10 minutes.
  • Warmer water cures faster; colder water extends working time.

Mixing

  • Can be hand mixed, but best results with a power drill and mixer attachment.
  • Mix for one minute to achieve a gel-like consistency.

Application

  • Wet the model’s skin before applying.
  • Apply a thin coating by brushing, smoothing by hand, or using a plastic spatula.
  • Keep the model still until the material sets.
  • Experiment with water amount for desired consistency.

Applying A Support Shell

  • Once cured, a support shell is necessary.
  • Gypsona brand medical grade plaster bandages are recommended.

Casting Into The Mold

  • Cast into the mold within 4 hours following demold.
  • Materials include plaster, wax, clay, and fast urethane resins.
  • For soft castings, use soft silicone rubber.
