Trendy hobby called "casting"
Filling a mould with different casting compounds and looking forward to seeing the final result after the cast item has dried out - this is what the creative hobby of casting is all about. The true reason for rejoicing is that the results - if the most important tips are properly followed - are always flawless and easy to achieve. The criterion essential for success is to use the appropriate casting mould for your project. Here is a small glimpse of all casting moulds and their application possibilities for specified casting materials.
Which casting mould should be used to match the chosen casting compound?
Moulds made of PET, such as our flat moulds and our latex full-form casting moulds are suitable for Raysin, concrete, wax, soap and chalk casting powder. All these casting compounds can also be poured into the food-safe LDPE moulds. Moreover, these moulds can also be used for food products such as chocolate.
Moulds made of silicone are quite versatile and can be used for Raysin, concrete, casting resin, wax, soap and chalk casting powder.
Casting moulds made of polycarbonate (PC or injection moulding) are specifically designed for candle wax.
General application notes:
Take care that the casting mould is clean and dust-free when pouring in. To avoid formation of air bubbles, pour the requested casting compound slowly. By gently tapping or shaking the casting mould, the air bubbles will start to float upwards. Immediately after use, clean the casting mould thoroughly with clear fresh water and carefully remove all casting material remnants. After demoulding, it is important that the cast item continues to dry thoroughly in the open air. Drying time depends on the type of casting material and the size of the cast item. It may take sometimes several days.
