21,50 cm Thin round druzy insert mold
My molds are made with a high quality Platinum-cured silicone that is highly elastic and sturdy. Degassed with a vacuum chamber and can be used in a pressure pot.
This mold is an insert mold, this means you need to place this mold into another mold that is slightly bigger. It has a druzy texture from my self grown crystals. The crystals are tiny and leveled which creates a luminous sparkle.
The mold is 100% handmade to order, so please note that i will need a maximum of up to five days to process your order.

Demolding an insert mold
Before you demold an insert mold, please make sure no resin or sharp edges are covering this mold. It can happen that a little resin goes under the insert mold when curing. You need to remove this resin safely first before demolding the insert to avoid ripping your mold, as cured resin can be very sharp!
If your resin is fully cure then use a heatgun, just slightly go over those resin pieces with the heatgun. This will soften your resin and you will be able to remove the resin easily.
Care instructions
All silicones are sensitive to Epoxy resins and other chemicals. Please always follow the instructions for the epoxy resin product you are using. The quality and care will determine the life expansion of the mold. I strongly advise to avoid using a torch or heatgun as this could lead to breaking down the silicone and causing it to fuse to the epoxy resin and tear the mold when demolding.
Do not use any sharp objects as this could scratch or damage the druzy surface.
After demolding store them in a dust-free area or cover them with kitchen foil or place them in a ziplock bag. You can easily use tape to remove any dirt if needed. You could use water and soap but avoid using anything that could scratch the surface and make sure to dry well so no water drop marks will remain.
Handle with love and care and it will make you fall in love with each piece you create.
