YOU ARE AWESOME! I can't stop watching these videos! By far the most informative tutorials I have discovered. Thank you for being thorough.

Really cool product, thank you for sharing. 💞

Wow, loving the idea of making some beautiful bezels with the chain mold. Thanks for sharing✌🏽💙

I am considering this product. This has been very helpful. Thank you.

I have never seen this, this is so cool. Thanks for sharing your video.

wOW! this is gr8! gonna purchase it hopefully..

Thank you dear tutor !

Cindy, in the event that there are other subscribers as old and clueless as I am, I need to let you know that when I watch the newest video right from my email, which I do, there is no thumbs up option. I have discovered that I have to watch it on KZread directly to like it, which I will do in the future! I appreciate all of your videos and have purchased many products that I would never have known existed if not for your tutorials. Not to mention the many skills I have learned. I will try this product also! Thank you!

I've used the Composimold and it was really nice to be able to re use it- which helps make up for the initial outlay. Can't wait to save up enough to try this. I make a lot of 1/4 and 1/144 scale minis, and stuff for N and Z ga trains (1/160, 1/220) and it's nice not to have to sculpt each one, as I'm no great sculptor and it takes a long time to get something right. Do you have suggestions for re hydrating Guilders Paste? I've missed it, and been using the Viva Decor type which you can get in small sizes from Poly Clay Play, and rehydrates with water, but sometimes the Guilder is more appropriate.

This is a interesting tutorial

thank you for demoing this product! love the reusability of it since a novice and am more likely to make mistakes. do you happen to know if the putty is compatible with resin as well as polymer clay?

Interesting. I prefer the liquid mold makers and I make my own reusable at home using gelatin and vegetable glycerin - both readily available at my local grocery store. It is liquid and I pour it over the object I want molded. I can heat it again in the microwave if it fails or I no longer need it. Only issue with it is the heat but seems like this mold putty gets hot too. Because of the heat I am limited with my home mixture and don't do anything that is plastic or may get damaged. Glass, shells, metals etc. are all fine though. - Heidi

Thank you so much for the info! I found a few videos and blogs with the info and will definitely be giving this a try.

So I got mine specifically to use the liquid silicone to make a mold from. Will the oil in this product work. Also...have you used resin in this...

Can you put this into resin? I’m looking for a more putty type texture to bury into resin

I want to create small 3d cars and buses - can I use this putty for that purpose and then fill the mold with polymer clay?

soooooooooo cool!!! :3

Hello. Thank you for video. Which reusable putty is best for ornate picture frame repair? Also, is it safe to work without gloves or without ventilation ? I read about epoxy putty and health problems.

Hi Rae, I haven't done Ornate Picture repair, but if I was going to try it, the Impressive Mold Putty would work well. It is easy to use, and you don't need a bunch of safety equipment to use it. Epoxy putty, is something altogether different. Epoxy putty is a two part material that hardens rock hard into an epoxy. You can't reuse it, and you definitely need gloves and safety equipment, as many people develop a sensitivity to epoxies as they are curing. They are fine and some are even food safe after curing, though, so it may be a good material to put into the mold and use on your frame. Just do your research. Look for frame restoration videos, and you should be able to find the specific help that you need. Good luck!

Hi Cindy, Great Video! Just wondering how this putty holds up to a tissue blade, like if you are trying to get a perfect flat back on a cameo or something, would the tissue blade cut into the mold really easily or is it like the silicone molds where the blade can slide across the top nicely?

Hi there, this putty isn't that hard, so you can cut into it a lot easier than on the silicone, so you do have to be a little more careful when trimming the back. Doesn't end up mattering that much though since you can easily make a new mold if you wreck it.

,great video,Can you use it for caramelized sugar for boiled sweets.

@PolymerClayTutor

5 жыл бұрын

Thank you James! I don't think that will work, because the hot sugar would most likely 'melt" and soften the putty. I think you would be better off using a 2 part silicone molding putty or 2 part liquid silicone molding material which can handle much higher heats.

Does this mold material stay flexible? I didn't hear you say anything about flexibility (I'll watch again to be sure) but some of the melted molding compounds get hard, even though they can be remelted, and reused. I have a few things I've tried to mold with both the putty types and the paint-on latex, although so far I have not tried it with the liquid silicones. But it has a lot of tight holes - think Celtic - and so far I've had no luck. I need the flexibility in the mold. (Same question for Composimold, I guess...)

Yes both the Composimold and the ImPRESSive Putty are quite flexible, (especially if they are not too thick). Even the older molds stay flexible.

after a while mine turned brown idk if that happends or not

So I'm looking for a cheap pour silicone.. Is it possible to melt the putty enough to where it becomes liquids and that it'll harden when dry?

Thank you for your informative tutorials! I work with PMC (precious metal clay) occasionally. Is this product compatible with PMC?

@ComposiMold

Hi there! Thanks for the question. This is Michelle jumping in from ComposiMold. ImPRESSive Putty's melting point is 185F. So it wouldn't hold up to the high temps needed for PMC. Do you also work with polymer clays? That would be your best bet with the Putty. Oh and wax, soaps, resins, and many more!

@PolymerClayTutor

Michelle is right about the heat that PMC fires at, being a and issue for the putty, but I'm thinking you just wanted to mold the raw PMC clay in the mold, remove it and let it dry before you fire it... am I correct? (I don't work with PMC but I have watched a few videos on it.) As long as you didn't plan to cure the PMC in the mold and jst form it in there, I can't see why you couldn't. Hope that is helpful for you Nancy.

Hi pesto12601. Michelle here from ComposiMold, jumping in to answer your question. No ImPRESSive Putty is not toxic. There are no fumes when heating in the microwave. The "oil" is the activator that begins to separate out when the mold sits. You can easily wipe it away and then make your castings. It is an important ingredient that keeps the Putty working properly and can be added back as needed. As Cindy mentioned, it also acts as an internal mold release. Thanks for your question!

I am so impressed that an actual company representative monitored this feed to answer questions that Cindy might not know (if that's even possible)! That is both savvy and dedicated. I just subscribed to your channel. Thank you CopmposiMold for creating a product that is non-toxic and can be used in a non-dedicated microwave. That is a big, BIG deal for me. My clay oven is not in my house, and that means I have to plan my baking and do several projects at once instead of making a single item on a whim. Hey ladies, let's ask for some of this stuff for Valentine's Day, birthday, Mother's Day, or "just because." If I can't get it that way, I'll break down and buy it for myself. LOL Big hugs to all my fellow crafters, and bear hugs to Cindy for sharing her expertise in the way of FREE tuts!
