Smallie Posted December 19, 2007 Report Share Posted December 19, 2007 Do a search and you will find various methods. I generally make the mold on the weekend and let it sit for two or three days on top of the furnace. Some people bake it in the oven and coat it after a matter of hours. Do a search, read for an hour and you will gain a wealth of knowledge regarding plaster molds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vodkaman Posted December 19, 2007 Report Share Posted December 19, 2007 I use the oven, BUT, if you over cook it, the surface can get very powdery. If you brush on the sealer, you can disturb the surface and destroy detail and finish. I make a 50/50 mix of elmers or PVA and make sure every part of the mould gets a soak for a few seconds. Longhorn is the man for Elmers use. Read all his threads and you will rapidly become an expert. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitey Posted December 19, 2007 Report Share Posted December 19, 2007 I usually coat it the day after I have made the plaster mold. I use a brush and lightly coat it, let it dry a few hours, and apply another light coat. Good for 1000's of pours and easy to reseal if needed.
