Features and Benefits:

Using moulds is an efficient way to mass-produce consistent, original forms.

Usage Instructions:

• Fill the mould with liquid casting clay of appropriate consistency.

• Allow the clay to reach the desired thickness, then discharge the excess liquid.

• Leave the clay in the mold until it reaches a consistency firm enough for removal. This time will vary depending on mud type, weather conditions, and mold usage frequency.

• Scrape the excess mud at the mould's opening using a retouching knife. Carefully remove the piece by hand.

• Once the piece reaches leather hardness, you can perform retouching, lining, decoration, or other finishing processes.

Mould Care:

• Clean the mould with a dry sponge after use.

• Dry the mould outdoors or in the sun if possible. Avoid rapid drying methods, such as ovens or stoves, as they can reduce the mould's lifespan and quality.

• Note: Inner mould dimensions are provided. Finished product size may vary depending on the type of casting mud, depth of retouching, and firing process.
