How To Make a Simple Silicone Candle Mold
Step 3: Mixing and Applying OOMOO™ 30
OOMOO™ 30 has a Mix Ratio of 1 Part A:1 Part B by volume. Pour 5.5 oz / 162 ml of Part A into the measuring cup, then pour 5.5 oz / 162 ml Part B into the measuring cup for a total of 11 oz. Mix thoroughly, being sure to scrape the sides and bottom of the container many times until the color of the rubber is uniform. Double mix and pour, making sure there are no streaks in your mixture. Pour the OOMOO™ into a second container and mix some more.
Pour the rubber at the lowest point in the acrylic tube and let the rubber flow around the model. A long, thin stream is advised in order to reduce the amount of potential air entrapment in the rubber. Let the rubber flow up and over the top of the model by 1/2''.
