What can I make with this kit?

In the table below you can easily read the average consumption. There is 500 grams of alginate rubber in the package. You can easily order extra alginate rubber.

Directions for use

• Clean your hands thoroughly before making the mould.
• Prepare the alginate rubber in a mixing cup with lukewarm water (approximately 20°C) according to the mixing ratio of 1 part by weight of powder to 3 parts by weight of water. You can then push your hand directly into it.
• Make the mould by keeping your hand in the mixing cup with alginate rubber for 10 minutes (try to move as little as possible).
• After 10 minutes, remove your hand from the mould. Move your hand up and down and it will come out automatically.
• Mix porcelain plaster in the small mixing cup according to the mixing ratio of 1:3.5 (1 part water and 3.5 parts powder) and pour this into the mould. 
• Remove the casting from the alginate mould after 30 minutes. You can break off the alginate, because the mould cannot be used multiple times.
