We use high quality Italian non-toxic silicone with a platinum catalyst for our molds. This silicone is compatible with all types of gypsum, coatings, polyurethane resins, and acrylic resins, for various polymer clays (Sculpey, Fimo, Cernit, Pardo, Kato) and other polymeric types. Also for wax, soap, chocolate, and other materials.
The life cycle of a silicone mold when working with epoxy resin is about 25 uses (depending on the aggressiveness of the resin). After that, the silicone mold loses its properties and qualities. May start to tear.
Working with other, non-aggressive materials like clay, the life cycle of the mold is almost endless.
Working with polymer clay, in order to remove the finished detail from a deep mold, you can bake the silicone mold with a polymer in it in the oven. Silicone molds safely withstand up to 200°C (392°F). The baking temperature for polymer clay can be found on your polymer clay package. Also, you can freeze the mold with the polymer in it for 5-20 minutes in the freezer and then remove the detail. Use this tip for any berry mold from our store.
Thin shapes can be removed from the form by simply folding the shape.
