Cavex CleverCast Premium Alginate is based on a unique combination of the highest quality ingredients to offer excellent reproduction of the body, delicate objects or organic materials (fruit, plants, etc.).<\/span><\/p>

Molding alginate is a hydrophilic polymer derived from dried, ground seaweed.<\/span><\/p>

It comes in the form of a fine gray powder to be mixed with water. In contact with water, the alginate slowly thickens and gels. The resulting paste is non-toxic, hypoallergenic and safe to apply directly to the skin. <\/span><\/p>

Alginate is easy to use, and thanks to its rapid processing time, you can create a mold in just a few minutes, whether it’s your baby’s hand or foot, your pet’s footprint or simply fragile everyday objects.<\/span><\/p>

Similar to pink alginate, Cavex alginate turns green on contact with water, offering a delicious minty fragrance.<\/span><\/p>

Hurry up, add it to your basket and try it out.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

1.Preparation<\/strong><\/p>

Prepare the object or surface to be molded, making sure it is clean.<\/p>

Application to heavily hairy skin requires protection, so coat the areas concerned with petroleum jelly to facilitate removal.<\/p>

2.mixing ratio<\/strong><\/p>

Flexible mixing ratio, prepare the required quantity according to the size of the object to be molded.<\/p>

Small prints: 1 part powder to 1 or 2 parts water<\/p>

Large prints: 1 part powder to 3 or 4 parts water<\/p>

3.mixing<\/strong><\/p>

Measure out the required amount of water and pour in 1\/3 of the powder.<\/p>

Mix the first mixture well before adding the remaining 2\/3 of the powder. Mixing can be done by hand or with a mechanical tool. Mixing time depends on the method chosen, but in all cases it’s important to obtain a lump-free solution. <\/p>

When the mixture is perfectly homogeneous, the alginate is ready for use.<\/p>

Working time depends on both the choice of alginate and the temperature of the water: the warmer it is, the faster it sets.<\/p>

4.molding<\/strong><\/p>

Immerse the object to be reproduced for a few minutes. When it sets, gently pull it out. <\/p>

Alginate can be applied in successive layers to the face, or to any surface of your choice.<\/p>

In this case, it will be necessary to create a plaster shell to support it.<\/p>

To do this, use plaster strips, cut to the required length by yourself.<\/p>

After moistening them, apply them directly to the gelled alginate and repeat the operation until a sufficiently solid shell is obtained.<\/p>

5.Prise<\/strong><\/p>

Let the alginate set: setting time varies according to the type of alginate used, generally between 3 and 5 minutes. You’ll know the alginate has set when it becomes solid and elastic to the touch, and you can then gently remove the object or body part from the mold. <\/p>

6.using the mould<\/strong><\/p>

Use the mold immediately or within a few hours, as the water will evaporate, causing the mold to shrink slowly.<\/p>

The closer the mold is to a heat source, the faster evaporation will take place.<\/p>

The casts can be made from casting plaster<\/a>, plaster<\/a> synthetic,<\/a> wax, or with our F23 polyurethane resin.<\/a><\/p>

7.demoulding<\/strong><\/p>

Gently tear off the alginate mold to release the proof.<\/p>

The mold is not reusable.<\/p>

8.storage<\/strong><\/p>

Store for 3 years in a dry place.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
