CHAMPION-206 Posted August 17, 2010 Report Share Posted August 17, 2010 Is there a certain ratio to mix the devcon2 with alcohol or acetone for sealing. Ive tried elmers glue and water but been reading alot about sealing with devcon using alcohol and acetone to seal the molds. I just never saw a ratio as to how much of aech part to use. And is acetone or alcohol better to use for the other part besides devcon? Any help is appreciated I have 12 molds to seal and wanted to try both methods to see which works best for me.

I'm not sure about a ratio but thinner than you think it should be seems to work best. It's worked best for me when it was almost water like in viscosity.

mark poulson Posted August 19, 2010 Report Share Posted August 19, 2010 thx for the reply are you talking about using the acetone or alcohol to thin the devcon? I use denatured alcohol, a 1 to 1 mix. Just be sure to mix the D2T really well before you add the alcohol. Thin is best. Thicker will make you lose some of your mold detail.
