Does anyone here make molds to cast ornamental plasterwork?
I have mostly used latex which is brushed on in layers, but the molds tend to shrink quite a bit when they cure, and it distorts the casts. The liquid latex is pretty cheap though.
Has anyone tried any of the other molding materials? such as the silicone or urethane rubbers that are poured on rather than brushed?
