Review on Versatile Silicone Mold Making Kit for Art Projects and DIY – Includes Liquid Rubber Compound – Ideal for Copies, Home or Industrial Use (2.5 Lbs. - 40 oz.) by Gelin Battle

Amazing quality!

I have bought and redeemed this many times. I mainly make vintage style detailed plastic miniatures and kawaii style flat backs. This material allows me to cast my items in 3D shapes. The reason I can do this with this product and not others I have tried is that it is very difficult to break but very flexible. Vacuum degassing is not required, which is a huge plus for me as I don't have one. The finished molds are very flexible, allowing for the reproduction of the finest details, but also very strong and will not crack even with extensive manipulation of the mold. I can flip the finished piece to remove without much effort. In fact, I can cut into my shapes and they're so strong I don't even have to use a rubber band to hold them together while my resin hardens. I have never seen this silicone remove the finish from my original parts during the casting process and it comes off my originals very easily. You also get a decent deal for the price. Depending on the humidity and temperature, it will start to set within one to two hours and will be fully cured in about 6 hours. I have used two part casting resin, UV resin, ultra light clays and clear epoxy in my molds with great success. I also tried flat backs and had no bleeding under my originals and the detail came out perfectly. I highly recommend.

Easy to use, too friable for resin
