Can you colour polycast resin? Do you have any suggestions as to how to pour from the container without spilling? I find them really hard to pour from.
Very nice & easy. Always interesting to see the process. The resin pops so easily out of the moulds. 👍
Quite a straightforward and satisfying job. :)
@@dramamask do you think this would be ok in rubber linka moulds? I'm wanting to make some decent long last terrain but I don't want to ruin the moulds. Also would you use a release agent? (I know very little about all this, apart from some plaster of Paris I've not cast anything before)
Hmmm not sure where I went wrong, I used a measuring glass & poured out A to 50 ml & then B on top to 100 ml mark. Stirred gently for 30 seconds & poured out into my shallow decor moulds. The very first one I poured set well but the rest are looking marbled & not set. It was thickening I’d say within 30-60 seconds. Not the correct ratio? Need to use a weighing scales? How will I clean out my moulds? 😢
Very nice Drama..... Do you use latex anymore for mold making? Hope all is going well - carveit....
Yes, still use latex. :) Hope all is well at your end too! :)
Fantastic tutorial, but where do you get the moulds from please.
We make our own here and there might be some up for sale soon. :)
recently got hooked on making molds ...
Nice one, Darkseal! :)
Cool. Handy knowing one resin is bendy and ones firm. Wondering have you ever used jesmonite or plaster polymer? Not many you tube vids about it.
Cheers Micky! Plaster polymer sounds very interesting! :)
@@dramamask Yeah I've used it once, a cheaper version of jesmonite. Basic alpha plaster mixed with polymer instead of water, makes a waterproof fiberglass type of thing, using a certain type of fiberglass mesh with it, for thin casting or jacket molds. Zero smell and clean. I see a lot of plants pots and garden ornaments made from it in shops. Worth a look! When I had a go I could only find about 4 jesmonite videos on RUclips. And none of plaster polymer.
@@mickybetts7957 You have me very interested in the plaster polymer now. :) I'm guessing you make it up yourself and you don't buy something as a plaster polymer? :)
@@dramamask You buy the plaster polymer as a liquid resin, and then buy these plaster separate. I got mine from a place online called Alec Tiranti. They didn't sell jesmonite at the time but they do now. The mesh I bought separate Topo, think it's called Quaxial fiberglass mesh? Spelling may be wrong. It has larger weave goes and is softer and less evil than usual fiberglass mesh. My mate looked up another alternative to jesmonite too but I forgot what it was called. Cheaper again. Jesmonite is dearer but seems to be the main brand stuff, and that comes as a kit I think.
@@mickybetts7957 I've never used Jesmonite. Would be good to find a casting alternative to expensive casting materials - especially when making bigger pieces. :)
How you got time to do lots moulds when I do it I've seen in start to dry before I get 2 moulds done. What am I doing wrong
Hmm, perhaps you are mixing too much to work with at one time? I don't know.
Is it true that you have about 3 minutes to work with the resin? Is it lightweight? Do you need to wear a respirator? Thanks
I mix for around 30 seconds and yes, maybe around 3 minutes to work with, which is plenty by the time you have tapped any unwanted air out also. The resin in this video isn't what I would call lightweight and has a nice weight to it which I thunk adds a 'value' to the casted piece. And, yes, wear a respiraror at all times with resins - even if it is odourless. Take no chances.
Hello is it 50 50 ratio
Could I Add filler to it
Like dental plaster
Or French plaster
Thanking you.
You can add filler to resin. Read product information to make sure. Watch video or read your product info for ratio and resins may differ with ratio mix. Cheers. :)
Herculite is a great additive..its heavy and great for detail..you need to mix it thoroughly though or you can get pitting in your cast
I need some of those gargoyles 😁
Funnily enough, was thinking about doing some competition challenges, so they might come up at some point. Watch this space! :D
Is this polyrethane resin is smells and need mask ? Also did you thing we can mix a resin with powder of marble .
You'll want to wear a mask even if the resin doesn't smell. Sometimes, the fumes aren't picked up by smell. I haven't used marble powder, so you might want to look into that. I know you can add dyes, etc.
Marble powder caused me a lot of problems..it tends to form clumps and can stop the resin curing properly..better off using a hard gypsum like herculite or crystical
Can you use this product with latex molds?
I wouldn't advise it.
@@dramamask I've now started making the molds with silicone 👍
@@enigmavapes9652 Rock on! :)
The curing process releases quite a bit of heat which can delaminate your latex moulds or the resin can stick to the latex
Would this be ok for action figure parts?
I have a ton of expensive figures I wish to repair but I'm not sure how fragile this would be.
You might be better off with this stuff: Resin Casting Figurines | Polycraft EasyFlo 60: ruclips.net/video/KZbF-MpBBUQ/видео.html I'm no expert, so would be a good to some research. :) Check out Brick In The Yard on RUclips for some great information on this topic. :)
Do you not sell your moulds I love to buy the Griffin one person use only I don't sell anything jst a hobby
Sorry for late reply. The griffin mold is a little rough, but works. I will most likely sell it at some point in 2023 along with other latex and silicone molds.
is the sg2000 sutable for cast molds with a 4 mm wall thickness my main concern is flexing / lack of rigidity ..
I would think the resin would be ok although this resin is more rigid that other resins.
can we cast thin wall models buy using SG 2000 . i mean 2-3mm wall thikness. ?
Yes, I am pretty sure you can, but always check the specs first. :)
is there any flexibility like normal plastic ?
The resin in this video is pretty rigid. :)
Can I color them with acrylic colorsr?
I would use acrylics myself after priming the resin with a good primer.
could you use this resin for slush casting?
The resin in this video is designed for straight-forward casting. There are other resins designed for slush/roto casting. Here's a slush/roto casting resin I have used before (you will want to do research to use what is appropriate to your project): Slush Cast A Resin Cosplay/Masquerade Mask | Polycraft EasyFlo 120: ruclips.net/video/TR_O9e7H4rQ/видео.html
@@dramamask Thank you so much :)
@@ewanneilson4314 You're welcome! :)
Can you recommend a primer that is paintable rather than a spray? Thanks
I'm not overly familar with paint-on primers, but I did use a paint-on primer for a metallic paint effects paint a while back which I think was called Metal Masters. :) Thank you Estelle. :)
How long does sg2000 cure/hardens
Did you watch the video? :D
@@dramamask ok ill give it a thumbs down
