It was my first time using this product. I wanted to create a "coal load" for a live steam garden railway locomotive. I had previously used real coal but it was too dirty.
After creating my momould, I mixed the product as per instructions, poured it in, and waited for the 30 minutes. Upon demoulding I was surprised how well the product came away from the mould and the casting was immaculate. There was no sign of any shrinkage and all the details of the coal had been faithfully reproduced.
Casts very easily and is runny enough to have very few bubbles. Dark grey rather than black.
This resin has been really good for casting keycaps - nice and strong, and it's very easy to mix well. It is dark grey rather than black (Mouldcraft told me that if add enough pigment to make it black, it doesn't cure). It's quite runny when mixed so bubbles rise to the surface well. The working time is short-ish (7-8 minutes) but that's just about enough, and means it cures quite quickly. I found I need to give it about 1.5-2 hours before removing from the mould because my moulded parts are quite thin. If you take them out at 30 minutes - 1 hour they're a bit too bendy.
