Review on ๐Ÿ”ด HV-65 Pint: Exceptional High Viscosity Mold Making Rubber for Natural Liquid Latex by Kelly Caballes

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Not the best but useful

I make a lot of latex molds for my art business. A big problem is shipping latex during the winter months as the cold can ruin the texture. The best thing about this product is that it was delivered in one day with Prime. It's fast! I didn't have to worry about temperature issues. Because of urgent work I had to order some latex in winter. I've run out of my favorite Holden's liquid latex and they handle winter shipping (as they should) and charge a lot of shipping. HV-65 is a bit runny and watery which means I had to use more of it. I also had to add thickeners (Holden's sells them) to increase the hardness of the mold. Mold latex suppliers add ammonia to keep the product smooth, creamy and antimicrobial. It did not have a strong ammonia odor; it is for and against. HV-65 dries quickly, but that's because the consistency is very runny. When it gets warmer I'll go back to my old favourite. By the way, this type of latex is NOT meant to be applied to the skin.
