Review: This didn't just didn't work out for me. I wanted to make a mould of a simple small figure, and based on the product label image of a moulded chess piece this Gedeo Latex seemed perfect for the job. The label is devoid of any instructions and sends you searching on the internet to find some, so to save you the bother here they are: "Apply the latex with a brush on the object to be moulded. At first, you will have taken care to protect your brushes by coating them with dishwashing liquid. Allow the first layer to dry 10 minutes. Apply a second coat. On this layer still wet, place the gauze to strengthen the mould and immediately apply a third layer on top. Allow to dry 10 minutes and apply a fourth layer. Allow to dry 6 hours. Using Gédéo’s plaster strips, make a supporting shell. Demould the shell once dry. To prevent the latex from sticking to itself, sprinkle the outside of mould with Gédéo’s Demoulding Talc and unmould." And that's where things started to go awry. 'Place the gauze to strengthen the mould'. Gauze, what gauze? I didn't know I needed any gauze. I watched plenty of video tutorials on making latex moulds and nobody used any gauze. I decided to press on without the gauze and proceeded to build up the layers of latex. And then that was the next thing to go awry 'allow to dry 10 minutes'. I don't know what conditions they were applying the latex when they wrote the instructions, but at normal room temperature it was taking 60-90 minutes for each layer to dry, and I was only brushing on thin layers. After 3 layers it was still looking very thin, so I put the fourth layer on quite thick, and left it overnight in a warm airing cupboard to dry. The next morning I tried to demould the figure, but the latex was far too thin. Based on the thickness I achieved after four layers, I'd say it would have taken 10 to make it thick enough to hold up as a decent mould. That would have used the entire tub. Don't even attempt demoulding without the talc, because the latex when dry is seriously sticky. My mould completely lost it's shape when removed from the figure and went straight in the bin, and because I only had half a tub of latex left I didn't have enough material (or willpower) to try again.
