How to make a resin mould
Are you looking to replicate an object or create a unique piece? Making your own silicone moulds for resin and eco resin can be really fun with endless possibilities.
There’s a few ways you can make your own silicone mould. Let’s take a look:
Silicone Putty
Silicone Putty from Let’s Resin
This putty is great for Beginners. You simply mix the two parts in equal measure. You’ll have – 3 minutes working time and 15-20 minutes demolding time meaning you can start using your mould right away.
It’s great for smaller items like jewellery or for making outlines to fill like bowls and coasters.
This mould making kit doesn’t require any equipment, cups, or stir sticks. You simply mix equal parts A (blue) and B (white) by hand. If you’re looking to create a mould of an object, place the mixed putty on the surface of any item to get your imprint.
If you’re looking to create an outline, simply role the putty and create your shape over a silicone mat or glass surface.
You can create molds for resin, soap, wax, clay, and more with this amazing putty.
Liquid Silicone
NicPro Silicone Rubber Mould Kit
This kit comes with all you need to make your own mould. Perfect for making larger moulds, you simply anchor your object inside of the housing, mix the two parts of liquid together and pour.
Your mould will be ready to use in 24 hours.
Brush on silicone
JDiction Brush on Silicone Rubber
With the JDiction Brush-On silicone mold making kit from Amazon, curing is complete in just 10–15 minutes.
With just two coats brushed on, you can cover every inch of your item’s surface and create a mould.
As this does not create sturdy moulds, it is better for smaller items but can save a huge amount of resin.
