Perfect Mold Alginate Molding Material, Non-Toxic Mold Making Powder for Life Casting, Hand Casting, Baby Footprints, Face & Body Molds, USA Made, 1.5 lb Bag

Great molding material. This worked as needed!

Easy to use and molds beautifully for my purpose which was to make castings of plaster decorative accents for an old ceiling. One thing I noticed is that it took a lot longer for the mold to start to set than what the directions indicate. I found that to be a good thing because it gave me more time to get ready. As the directions indicate, once it does start to set, you only have a few seconds to place your items in the mold. I found that small batches were the best.

It really makes a decent lightweight mold for certain projects. The only thing is the set time which is almost instant so if that's what your looking for, this is the product for you.

Perfect Mold: This is a pretty large package with lots of information on the back. Simple directions, easy mixing & pouring, but also warnings, because this is NOT just like plaster of Paris. Have all the safety equipment, Goggles, filter or respirator, gloves, apron or lab coat. Avoid breathing the dust or getting it in your eyes. Just to be on the safe side don't get it on your skin or clothes. If I have to go to all that trouble I expect great things to happen with this stuff...! (Sawing, grinding, filing, rasping or sanding your mold may justify using the same safety standards.)

This is one of the easiest casting products to work with. It is forgiving and has ample set up time. I have used it many times and always come back to it.

I’ve worked with a few different brands of products, and this by far is the easiest and quickest to work with. I purchased both the mold and casting medium, and from start to finish it was perfect! The detail alone was insane! Will definitely purchase again and recommend to anyone else who uses these type materials in their work! Also I got a lot more than I was expecting for the price I paid, most stuff like this comes prepackaged with both and can range from $25 to $35 and you will be lucky to get enough for one project if it goes seamlessly.

This stuff was just what I needed for quick and dirty mold making. I will say, for anyone who has never worked with this stuff before, it breaks apart once it has set so you need to fill this with whatever youre making your positive cast out of. Since it holds a LOT of water too, it does tent to stay wet , at least it did for me. Mixing it was super easy though, you can basically eyeball it, and it sets in minutes. SO grateful to not waste days waiting for silicone molds to cure before being able to get a cast. Sped up the process quite nicely and really worked for my needs.

Good stuff and kinda fun . Use good city water or distilled but never well water. Temperature is critical! Can be expensive for large projects considering it's only a one time use. A big plus it that whts not mixed can be saved indefinitely in the heavy resealable bag.

I would def buy this again. Made a hand mould for a project and it was great. Very large bag so if you mess up the first time there is a lot to do it better the second or third time

Turned out much more detailed than I thought and was very fun to make.

The mold mix didn't work for me. Using the measurements provided I could not get the mold to harden. it stayed a rubbery texture and It had a horrible odour. We didn't end up using the product after several attempts.

Bon matériel

tried using bottled water as the bag suggests, mixed it together but just got a soupy liquid with alot of chunks
