Topic Subject : RE: full head lifecast body double

Hi There


You didn't mention ArtMolds LifeRite skin safe silicone - far superior in
tear strength and easier to use than any other life casting silicone
available today.

BUT don't take my word for it. Mark Alfrey selected it for his new video The
Ultimate Life Casting Video. In it he demonstrates how to make a full body
cast with LifeRite. (He could have used the other brand, but like ours
better he says). The video is also interesting as he shows how an actor was
completely submerged in alginate to get a seamless full body casting. A lot
of alginate for that one.

Did I mention Mitch Rogers of Bity Mold Supply also used LifeRite in their
demonstration life casting DVD?

Regards

Ed McCormick

Smooth-On is just one of many suppliers of alginate. I have also used Ed's
mix from Artmolds.com which is also great stuff plus he has a whole website
of knowledge plus some fine DVD's to learn from.
