Aqua Cast Black

Aqua Cast is now also available as a pre-colored version! Aqua Cast Black is just as environmentally friendly as Eli-Chem's standard Aqua Cast. The difference, however, is that this variant is pre-pigmented with an opaque black colour that has the appearance of a ceramic finish.

What is Aqua Cast?

Aqua Cast is an environmentally friendly casting compound made from powder and polymer that can be easily mixed with water. Through a unique formula, the acrylic polymer additives are fused into one powder. All the properties of a traditional acrylic resin remain the same. Aqua Cast therefore hardens rock hard, is easy to use and cures at lightning speed.

With Aqua Cast you can make great plaster look figurines, coasters, jewellery and many other great items. This product is similar to Acrystal, Porcelain plaster, Acrylic One and Jesmonite.
