How To Make a Silicone Glove Mold and Faux Wood Casting
Step 7: Constructing Second Half of the Support Shell
Plasti-Paste™ will stick to itself and other surfaces vigorously, so it is important to use a release agent to separate the two halves of the shell. Begin by applying Smooth-On's Sonite™ Wax to any surface that the fresh Plasti-Paste™ will come in contact with. Follow the application of Sonite™ Wax with a spray coat of Universal Mold Release™. Then, mix and apply a second batch of Plasti-Paste™, building the Plasti-Paste™ support shell to an ultimate thickness of 3/8'' (1 cm). Allow the Plasti-Paste™ shell to fully cure (approximately 90 minutes).
