FisherAtWork Posted November 9, 2022 Report Share Posted November 9, 2022 Hello guys, I currently have a FDM 3d printer with PLS+ filament! I have create some master with the printer and now I don't know what material is the best for Plastisol resistance! I'm trying to make fishing lure mold resistent! So I'm looking for resin/silicon material. Someone know some store from EUROPE for buying this specific products? What about the resin, with the addition of aluminum powder? Is a release agent necessary for the resin? Thanks 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should any epoxy resin on the market work? Edited November 14, 2022 by FisherAtWork Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TroutSupport.com Posted November 17, 2022 Report Share Posted November 17, 2022 Yeah unless you are doing commercial production.. RTV Silicone will work just fine. Check out SmoothOn they make several different durometer 2 part silicones that would work great for your molds. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RTV Silicone will work just fine. Check out SmoothOn they make several different durometer 2 part silicones that would work great for your molds. The price is around the same (here in Europe) for resin and silicone! So I decided to buy the resin for a better resistance and why not do some commercial production... Anyway I tryed the Alumilite VAC-MASTER 50 but I got a lot of problem, check out the photo: I can't use the brush like on DIY video on last comment, because the mix is very very dense! This cause problem during the casting too... I'm using release wax brushed with a tiny brush on PLA, but resoult it's very bad Edited November 18, 2022 by FisherAtWork Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
