  • Dala Casting Rubber is a brush on, liquid latex product for flexible mould creation.
  • It enables you to replicate detailed designs by brushing onto the original to create a flexible 'negative', from which a postive may then be cast.
  • Please Note: Casting Rubber contains ammonia and may be a potential skin and eye irritant. Handle with care.

How to use:

  • Dala casting Rubber is a brush on, liquid latex moulding product that requires a few coats layered on top of one another to create a flexible skin from which a positive may be cast.
  • Brush onto the original piece - applying an even, first layer and allow to dry completely.
  • Please Note: Product will darken slightly when completely dried.
  • Once the first layer is dry, apply a second coat, and then a third, and a fourth - leaving time in between each layer each layer to dry.
  • For best results apply 7-10 layers of Casting Rubber to the original.
  • Once the casting rubber layer(s) has dried, you will be able to peel it off of the original for filling with your chosen moulding product.
  • For extra strength and support of your flexible mould, pour plaster of paris over the casting rubber covered original, and create a flat 'top' by skimming the surface of the plaster of paris. This will give you a sturdy base for your flexible mould to sit in when you flip it over.
  • Prepare your moulding material as per manufacturers instructions and pour into your flexible mould.
  • Wait the recommended time for the product to dry and release the mould from the casting rubber skin.
  • Clean up using soapy water.
