How To Make a One Piece Mold of a Head Using Body Double™

Ready for casting: For added effect, brush Cast Magic® Bronzonker powder onto the surface of the mold and into the mold cavity. Be sure to cover all areas, including deep-set spaces like the ears and nose. Remove excess Cast Magic® to prevent imperfections in the finished casting. Then, seat the Body Double® in the support shell. Tape the shell securely together and then tape it into a bucket. This will help keep the mold level and will make handling easier.

Casting: Mix Smooth-Cast® 320 with Ure-fil® 7 and cast rotationally into the mold. The mix ratio is 1 Part A to 1 Part B to 2 Parts Ure-fil® by volume. For added effect, start by adding some red SO-Strong® tint to Part B of the resin. Start by pouring Part B into a mixing container. Ure-fil® is a fine powder that will make the resin more dimensionally stable and slightly thicker, perfect for rotational casting. Add filler to Part B. Mix Ure-Fil® with Smooth-Cast® 320 Part B thoroughly prior to adding Part A. Then, add Part A to the mix.

Continue mixing all components until there are no color striations in the material, making sure to scrape the sides and bottom of the mixing container.
