Post subject: | Milliput: how to use it. (specific situation) |
This is not a general question about milliput. (yellow-grey) Currently I am trying to multiply a base that I have made of this product. I use instant mold for the solid shel and I am placing it into a base covered by fresh mixed milliput. My problem is that while the milliput is becoming stone, it sticks into the instant mold, and when I remove it (after 6 hours) it breaks and its upper part (where the embossed stuff is) sticks to the instant mold. Complicated? The thing that will clarify how to better use this, is what can I make to help the stoned milliput to slip out the instant mold shell. Water? I tried it but no. If I use this when I put the fresh mixed milliput into the shell, milliput becomes wet, it's like mud and cant bring nice results. If I use it while I try to unattach the stoned milliput from the shell it does not help at all. My only solution is to mix a bit green stuff with the milliput, it will become much more flexible but green stuff is expensive (for the amount I will finally need). So I just need what I mentioned before. Please help guys |

I was going to suggest mixing greenstuff with it but you already covered that. Where are you buying your greenstuff from? You can get 36" for about £8 which lasts me years... I eventually lose it and have to get more You can possibly try some mold release, tiny bit of watered down vaseline or vegetable oil maybe. |

Coat the mould with vaseline perhaps. |

Yes, Vaseline works wonders with milliput and green stuff. It's better than water because it doesn't make the milliput sticky. |
