Painter1 Posted October 15, 2022 Report Share Posted October 15, 2022 I’m working with 3 color hand pours and need to keep the cups of plasitol hot & pourable for about 30 minutes. I recall seeing someone’s (maybe Frank) mold made, and formed atop the Hotplate with cavities that fit the cups. How to do that, how well that works and other solutions for keeping 3 separate colors hot enough to pour well are most welcome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apdriver Posted October 15, 2022 Report Share Posted October 15, 2022 I haven’t done it but have seen a post where someone mixed Elmer’s and water into dry sand to make a workable mix and put it in a high sided hot plate. Sunk his cups in it leaving about a 1/2 inch sand as insulator under the cups. Let sit for several days so the water will evaporate then turn it on with the cups in place to set the sand. They said it works nice and the Elmer’s keeps the sand in place and holds heat well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
