The demolding process begins with the mold leaning forward. Running a finger on the inside perimeter of the alginate mold will help to loosen it from the face.The alginate will separate from the face very easily. The alginate is supported by the plaster shell to prevent any tears from occuring.
Before the mold can be cast, the breathing holes in the nose must be sealed off. A small amount of Alja-Safe® is mixed up and applied. Attention is paid to filling in the nose holes without creating any new detail in the mold. A tongue depressor stick is used to smooth out the alginate, leaving the finished Alja-Safe® alginate mold with plaster bandage support shell.
