Impression Moulding Chromatic Alginate

A FANTASTIC MOULDING PRODUCT WHICH IS GREAT FOR A WIDE RANGE OF GENERAL SCULPTING PROJECTS.

This product is 2.25 KG (5 packs) of Chromatic Colour Change Dental Alginate

• It is sealed new and fresh - just bought direct from the supplier so it will have a good shelf life (years) until opened.
• It is VERY IMPORTANTLY, relatively SLOW SETTING, i.e. over one minute mixing time at 23 deg C, so 3 minutes for the whole process as against less than half this time for other brands. This allows you to work properly with the product, getting a smooth mix without the need to panic !
• Supplied with a very valuable general help sheet.
• This is for the larger project or workshop. This material is ideal for making mouldings of larger body parts e.g. tummy or buttocks or mouldings for fine art sculptures and if you have the courage and skill, pregnant belly mouldings.
• Super safe product as designed originally for use in the mouth (dental mouldings).
• Peels off easily - no gloves required.
• Changes colour as you work with it telling you which stage of the process you are at.
• Can be painted gold, copper or silver to produce a stunning sculpture.

Product hints and advice

• As explained on the tip sheet, if you are using this product to mould/cast large areas such as a tummy, you need to encase/cover the Alginate mould in MODROC plaster bandage. This holds the sculpture together - you can buy ModRoc bandage on this website.
• Remember the Alginate is for making the mould only. After making the mould, you then need to make a casting from your mould. To do this you need casting plaster which is available on this website. Fine Casting Plaster is ideal for the job -

  you need roughly 2 x 10kg of plaster to go with every 5 packs of Alginate.

• After making the casting let it dry thoroughly and if desired, paint in wonderful colours such as gold, copper or silver - see products available on site. Finally you can varnish your finished product if necessary.
