------------Silica-Free & Oh So GREEN------->

NEW! MoldGel SILFREE. A revolutionary formula.
Made with all food-grade ingredients. It nourishes
the earth when discarded. 3-to-1 mix ratio yields
twice the volume as those 1-to-1 brands. Delayed
shrinkage for delayed casting - so creamy smooth, too.

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: latex moulds:--



The last time I even looked for latex, in the '90s, it was .00 per
gallon, and since it mostly evaporates away, you don't end up with a
gallon of rubber by volume. Urethanes were also about per gallon
and every ounce is kept as solid rubber. Where are you and what is
latex's cost?
I don't think molds shrink, but they might distort.
Urethane and silicone also show every fine detail. Latex's main
benefit is, it's almost impossible to rip.
