260g in total, divide by 2 
130 A + 130 B

 

1:3 cap plastic to IPA ratio

 

Mixong parts A + B thoroughly, the silicone is poured from a height into the flashing of the sculpt.

 

Once cured, the silicone mould is removed and cleaned out with IPA, to remove any left over clay.

 

Removig the clay from the tile then allows you to weigh the corrrect amount of silicone up for the next stage.

 

To prepare the mould, it is delicately vaselined and any excess is stippled off. 

 

A ratio of 1 part cap plastic to 3 parts IPA is mixed up to a consistency between water and egg whites.

 

This is then applied with a brush in a thin layer, and is then dried under a gentle heat.

 

This is repeated 3-4 times.

 

 

The silicone is then weighed out, taking into account, 10% for the deadener, part C.

 

A=56.25 (45%)
B=56.25 (45%)
C=12.5 (10%)

Total= 125g (100%)

 

Once measuread out and labelled A, B and C, they are mixed and drops of silicone pigment and flocking are added.

 

LEaving the silicone to cure, prepare another mixture of cap plastic and IPA to ecapsulate the silicone with 5-6 layers.
