First, Smooth-Cast® ONYX™ will be poured into the mold. For a metallic effect, Cast Magic® Bronzonker powder will be applied to the mold surface first by a brush. Once the Bronzonker is applied to the entire surface, any excess is blown off with compressed air. A mold strap is used to keep the mold tightly closed while casting resin.
Part A of Smooth-Cast® ONYX™ is shaken prior to dispensing. Part B of Smooth-Cast® ONYX™ is shaken prior to dispensing. Part A is dispensed into a measuring cup. An equal amount of Part B is dispensed into a separate measuring cup. Smooth-Cast® ONYX™ is mixed 1A:1B by volume. Next, Part A is added to a mixing bucket and Part B is added to the same mixing bucket. Parts A and B are mixed thoroughly. Care is taken to scrape the sides and bottom of the mixing bucket.
