vytautas Posted January 22, 2006 Report Share Posted January 22, 2006 one more observation - the higher temp - the harder foam you'll get. Harder, but with bigger pores (bubbles). Lower temps will cause foam get crusty, it breaks easily, but pores are small. Once I heated up to 50C (placed heater near the molds) and I demolded rock-hard marble structure lures with very big pores - it was unable to paint them, air was expanding primer and topcoat. BTW - the older foam, the higher temp you'll need to get good structure. When I started my Foam-it pack, it was enough 25-30C, now I have to heat working place up to 40C So you'll have to find optimum temp to pour foam P.S. we have a real thaw here in Lithuania: from -30 temps droped to -20C :grin: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
