Pro Hand EZ Cast Kit

Studio Quality Materials, Equal Museum Quality Results
Hands make an extraordinary lifecasting because of their texture and expressiveness. They are also one of the more simpler life casting sculptures in terms of size, preparation time, modeling ease, use of material and space needed to create the mold and casting. We created the Pro HandEZ Cast Kit shown on the left to take advantage of these facts and to introduce the beginning body caster to the art of life casting.

Highest Quality Materials Available
Yet, as with the majority of our kits it can be utilized by the more experienced life casting artist, too as it contains the highest quality molding and casting materials available. This is important for both the novice and the experienced artist because it provides insurance against material failure. By using studio quality materials, you can concentrate on your art and not be concerned with substandard material that may create more air bubbles, molding gaps, and tears. Our molding material is MoldGel our own special formula of alginate (what the dentist uses to take impressions of your teeth). It is a slower set than dental alginate (3-5 minutes) and resists slumping and tearing better than dental alginate. It is completely safe and hypoallergenic, too.

The casting material - CastRite is a highly dense gypsum plaster of Paris material that when properly mixed and cured is chip and chalk resistance. It is the same material that is used for lamp bases. Most important we think is the materials ability to capture the finest detail. It does this better than most gypsum-based material we know.

The Pro Hands Casting Kit contains:
- MoldGel mold powder
- CastRite casting stone
- Plasticine clay to support long fingernails
- Large plastic molding container - reusable
- (2) 2.5 gallon plastic mixing containers - reusable
