If compatibility between the rubber and the surface is a concern, a small-scale test is recommended. Apply a small amount of rubber onto a non-critical area of the pattern. Inhibition has occurred if the rubber is gummy or uncured after the recommended cure time has passed. To prevent inhibition, a “barrier coat” of clear acrylic lacquer sprayed directly onto the pattern is usually effective. Allow to thoroughly dry.\u003cbr\u003eAlthough not usually necessary, a release agent will make demolding easier when casting into or over most surfaces.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEase Release™ 200 \u003c\/strong\u003eis a proven release agent for making molds with silicone rubber and for releasing new silicone from cured silicone.

Post curing the mold an additional 4 hours at 150°F (65°C) will eliminate any residual moisture and alcohol that is a by-product of the condensation reaction that can inhibit the cure of some resins and rubbers. Allow mold to cool to room temperature before using. Do not cure rubber where temperature is less than 65°F\/18°C.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAccelerating Mold Max™ 29NV\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003eAccel-T™\u003c\/strong\u003e tin cure silicone rubber accelerator will accelerate the cure time of \u003cstrong\u003eMold Max™ 29NV\u003c\/strong\u003e.

Casting abrasive materials can quickly erode mold detail, while casting non-abrasive materials (wax) will not affect mold detail. Before storing, the mold should be cleaned with a soap solution and wiped fully dry. Two part (or more) molds should be assembled. Molds should be stored on a level surface in a cool, dry environment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.smooth-on.com\/msds\/files\/MOLD_MAX_29NV.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eSDS\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Smooth-On","offers":[{"title":"Trial Kit (2.2 lbs. \/ 1 kg.)","offer_id":47360477692219,"sku":"101044","price":35.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Gallon Kit (11 lbs. \/ 4.99 kg.)","offer_id":47360477724987,"sku":"101061","price":127.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5 Gallon Kit (55 lbs. \/ 24.95 kg.)","offer_id":47360477757755,"sku":"101071","price":507.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0780\/7539\/6411\/files\/MoldMax29NV-combo-1400x1050.jpg?v=1755902982","url":"https:\/\/maacaffestore.com\/products\/mold-max-29nv","provider":"The Compleat Sculptor, Inc","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
