Open Face Mold


 
 

Step 1Step 1. Measure out equal parts of Part A (light blue) and Part B (purple). It is recommended that the amounts be weighed for accuracy to ensure proper curing of the compound.

Step 2. Rapidly knead together both Part A and Part B until a uniform color is obtained. You have a total working time of approx. 2 minutes, so work quickly. Before proceeding to the next step, be sure that the compound is entirely mixed with no streaks of color.

Step 3Step 3. Working quickly, press the compound into the container making sure that the compound reaches the bottom. Position your model in the center of the container and press it into the compound until the top edge of the model is nearly flush with the surface of the compound. As the compound begins to cure, it may be necessary to hold down your model to prevent it from rising above the surface.

Step 4Step 4. After approximately 30 minutes the model can be removed and the mold is ready to use.
