Silicone mold tips?
I want to start making models of things and I’ve been looking up the quick curing silicon RTV. The problem is i don’t know how much i need or if it can be recycled also i don’t know what kind of silicone i need and all of the stuff I’ve been looking up is very expensive. If any one has any suggestions on where to buy it and what kind i should get i would be very thankful. I would be the molds using plastic or resin figurines and i would be filling the molds with resin. Also i don’t need quick curing silicone if there is some that works just as well but takes longer that is fine.
(any tips on making the molds are welcomed as well)
Go to GE RTV web site and work from there.
