Pouring
Rubber Molds
Measure out the amount of rubber you want to mix. Make sure you are going to have enough to completely fill your mold box.
Add
(1) part of catalyst to every (10) parts of base.
Pour
the catalyst into the base.
Mix
thoroughly until an even color is achieved. Be sure to scrape
the sides and bottom.
This
is what it should look like when completely mixed.
Pouring
rubber to make your molds is a snap. Just put your custom holds
in your mold boxes and begin pouring the mixed rubber over
them. Once your silicone rubber (base and catalyst) is mixed,
simply pour the rubber in your mold box from one point allowing
the rubber to flow naturally and fill the mold box.
Make
sure to completely cover all the origionals with .25in of cilicone
rubber. You don't have to fill your mold boxes all the way
to the top as long as your custom holds are covered by .25in
of rubber.
Finish
off pouring your rubber, then wait overnight for it to cure
before demolding.
