No cold foam latex!
kyrolan foam latex (release agent / part B /part A)
Right now I'm looking for the best material to cast my puppet pieces (arms, feet, head). I know everybody is using (4 component) foam latex, but I wanted to test an easier way. Okay. To be honest: I failed this time.
(I'll explain it short. For more information, please mail me.)
my testing setup
My kitchentable. I got a (testing) plastermould. some cups. brushes. a scale. and the foam latex.
casting foam
I bought the Kyrolan "Kaltschaum SF" (cold foam latex). (60€) Simple to use. Just mix two components together and it will explode like a mentos in coke after 3 minutes. And after 15 minutes your piece is set. Cool.
But only if you want to make your child some new softballs for sports class.
squeeze
The handling of the material is fine. Very Soft and light. But when you look not even close, you see every pore of the foam. I tried various mixtures and times. I almost mixed it in slowmotion to get no bubbles in the components...Didn't work out. This material is not what I expected.
sponge?
