COVERAGE:

1 Combined litre, 500ml Part A & 500ml Part B will cover approximately 1 sq mtr @ 1mm Depth

DIRECTIONS:

1 part A to 1 part B by volume. Mix thoroughly in a straight sided, flat bottomed container. Do not mix in an ice cream container. Use a flat ruler shaped mixing stick. Mix well scraping around the sides and base of the container.

Demoulding in around 2 to 4 hours @ 25 degrees. Low shrinkage on large scale moulds. If mould is adhesive after 24 hours this is due to temperature been too cold. You can fix this by placing mould in a hot room @ 25 degrees or wait 3 - 5 days and this will go away.

TIP:

It is recommended when pouring large casting moulds to set silicone for at least 12 hours before demoulding.
