Description
This product is a brush on liquid latex that is used to create flexible moulds. It is ideal for creating detailed designs and requires a few coats to be applied. The product will darken slightly when completely dried. Once the first layer is dry, apply a second coat, and then a third, and a fourth - leaving time in between each layer to dry. For best results apply 7-10 layers of Casting Rubber to the original. Once the casting rubber layer(s) has dried, you will be able to peel it off of the original for filling with your chosen moulding product.
Dala Casting Rubber is a brush on, liquid latex product for flexible
mould creation. It enables you to replicate detailed designs by
brushing onto the original to create a flexible 'negative', from which
a postive may then be cast.
IDEAL FOR: FLEXIBLE MOULD MAKING. Dala casting Rubber is a brush on,
liquid latex moulding product that requires a few coats layered on top
of one another to create a flexible skin from which a positive may be
cast. Brush onto the original piece - applying an even, first layer and
allow to dry completely.
Please Note: Product will darken slightly when
completely dried. Once the first layer is dry, apply a second coat, and
then a third, and a fourth - leaving time in between each layer to dry.
For best results apply 7-10 layers of Casting Rubber to the original.
Once the casting rubber layer(s) has dried, you will be able to peel it
off of the original for filling with your chosen moulding product. For
extra strength and support of your flexible mould, pour plaster of
paris over the casting rubber covered original, and create a flat 'top'
by skimming the surface of the plaster of paris. This will give you a
sturdy base for your flexible mould to sit in when you flip it over.
Prepare your moulding material as per manufacturers instructions and
pour into your flexible mould. Wait the recommended time for the
product to dry and release the mould from the casting rubber skin.
WARNING: Casting Rubber contains ammonia and may be a potential skin
and eye irritant. Handle with care.
