Product information - Help and handy hints
DO NOT INHALE OR INGEST THE MOULDING POWDER OR PLASTER.
THE MOULDING POWDER IS MADE OF SEAWEED AND IS TOTALLY SAFE FOR YOUR SKIN.
FOR BEST RESULTS:
- PLEASE DO A TEST MOULDING With 3 heaped TEASPOONS OF THE MOULDING POWDER AND 100 MLS WATER. MIX AS PER KIT INSTRUCTIONS AND DIP A FINGER INTO IT.
- Watch how the colour changes as you mix as this will give you an idea of timing.
- HOLD STILL FOR APPROX 45 SECONDS AND THE MOULDING GEL SETS LIKE A THICK JELLY CAPTURING VERY FINE DETAIL.
You will need:
- An electric mixer (wand type)
- A measuring jug
- A spatula
- Plastic container for mixing moulding powder (bucket, jug or icecream tub)
- A container & stirrer for mixing the casting plaster.
- Some sandpaper, splinter hook or small pointed knife for trimming and finishing.
USE COOL WATER (IDEALLY 23 DEG)
Do a ‘wet run’ practice in the container and measure the water it takes to surround the body part, without touching sides or bottom. Then you know how much gel to use.
The table below is an approximate guide depending of course on the size of the bodypart:
