      This is a hardener (catalyst) for silicone. Liquid silicone for making molds consists of 2 elements, the silicone itself and the hardener. Silicone is always sold with the hardener in the kit.

    Problem with using thermoplastic like this (in pliable form) - it tends to pull back from a mold as it cools. Also, soft molds require pushing the plastic into finer details, which distorts the shape of the final piece. Obvious when you wrap an object with it, the cooled plastic will always be loose fitting. Thermoplastic is very useful, but has its limitations.

    • @IntoThatGreatGoodNight
      @IntoThatGreatGoodNight 2 месяца назад +13

      I always make a secondary mold because silicone does have shelf life and molds get dull. I do this _immediately_ upon receiving the mold. I keep an original casting as well so I can remake the mold at any time. Of course, I have a functioning art studio with plenty of storage. The folks who do their art on their kitchen table (not a bad thing!) may not be so lucky, so I understand that. So, this is extremely good info.
