5.0 out of 5 stars Easy to use product
Easy to use product for great results. Used to replace a missing cover over a recharging plug on a bike front lamp unit. Good value for money product. Would recommend to others.
5.0 out of 5 stars Very easy to use, flexible and strong.
This silicone is ideal where you need a very flexible material which is also very robust. It’s easy to use being a simple 50-50 mix ratio. The working time is around 30 minutes but can be made shorter or longer by increasing or decreasing the ambient temperature respectively. I like the fact that it came with mixing sticks, disposable gloves and a nice trimmer tool.I have been successfully using this with 3d printed moulds made from PLA which are reasonably easy to remove, especially if you apply a little silicone based lubricant or Vaseline to the mould before pouring the silicone.
4.0 out of 5 stars Great, but not with everything
Easiest silicone I worked with so far. No bubbles, limited mess, easy cleanup. However, it didnt cure against few materials - nail polish, Revell enamels, hot glue gun sticks, UV resin (that one is a given). I do casts of wax models mostly, so that worked like a charm though.
5.0 out of 5 stars Incredible results
Okay, I've used this for long enough to write a review, and I have to say, I'M OBSESSED.I'm VERY new to resin and moulding. The small amount was on offer, so I thought great, the reviews are good (which doesn't always really mean much), and was purchased a lot of times, so I bought it.Now to the review. This mould is amazing. At least for beginners.I can't comment on how good it is compared to other silicone moulds, but for my applications (turning 3D prints into resin. Anything from models, earrings, boxes, anything you can print really) this is incredible. It captures EVERY detail. It even captures the layer lines (which means more sanding and painting for me before moulding, yay 🙄).This mould is also very flexible, but VERY strong. For example when moulding something such as a cone (why? A wizard hat) and you need the wide brim to go through a small hole, with some cuts of a craft knife, you can stretch it to get the model out and it goes back to its original shape perfectly.I can't fully comment on longevity of moulds, but for now I've been using the first one I ever made (a small low-poly Bulbasaur) a few months ago and the mould still works. Also, IT DRIES/SETS QUICKNow to value for money. Buy small, see if it's a product you'd like to use. If you like it, I'd say go for the larger volumes. You DON'T want to run out in the middle of a project, I ended up wasting half an order (of the smaller bottles) because of that.To sum up, great value for money, has always been on offer when I bought it, efficient, effective, fast, flexible, strong, amazing!
5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent product with good elastic property
Took some getting used to as setting time is longer than I expected, but when set gives good definition
3.0 out of 5 stars Didn't set fully
Followed instructions to a T...I'm not new to silicone, this didn't fully set and had a lot of air bubbles. Wouldn't buy again.
5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent
Just ordered this for the third time (I buy now when on offer), my first but was a small kit (I have three zodiac stone tiles in my garden, my granddaughter asked why does she not have one, I told her she wasn't around when I bought them and the p!ace I got them is no longer there; so I set about making a clay Sagittarius figure then used the silicon to make a mould in which I set a stone figure, I made the tile from stone then attached the figure to it.I am about to get her to stick it to the top of a little raised wall and then she can paint it.I tend to make a lot of moulds from sellotape covered cardboard boxes (trimmed to size) & then add what ever I want too mould, the silicone sets quickly and turns out if the mould easily, then I can make resin items, I recently used one piece of a fairy garden path and one stream to make multiple path/stream pieces.Recommended

Product was exactly what I wanted.
Fácil de usar
Buena calidad de material, moldes flexibles y faciles de realizar.Lo recomiendo
Very soft
I find this silicone to be very flexible, the softest I have ever used. It was cast into a 3D printed PETG mold with no trouble. I debated if it was going to have a negative effect on resin part casting, but it worked very well for some smaller parts I make. I also use a pressure pot for the resin curing and didn't have trouble with the mold changing shape, even though I have these designed to use the absolute minimum amount of silicone (not enough silicone lol). The geometric shape being cast has torn a firmer "brand name American" blue silicone much easier, likely due to the small opening I use to remove the part. I use a sulfate free clay to hold my parts in the mold and there was no reaction to the clay.I did degass the silicone in a vacuum chamber and had absolutely no air bubbles, even after using a plastic mixer on a drill to combine the two parts equally. Working time is dramatically increased when ambient air temp is 18 degrees with cure at 5-6 hours. At the recommended 25 degrees, it was cured in 2 hours as they note. At both temps it was easy to use the vacuum chamber.I made 4 molds, three times, using different temps between 18–25 degrees and all succeeded. Cast 48 parts with no flaws or failures at all.
Excelente producto
Un producto de excelente calidad, a mi marido le súper encanto. Muy fácil de mezclar para hacer moldes para chocolatería , mi marido quedo encantado.
Durable, right amount of stretch, easy to use!
The media could not be loaded. This was my first time using silicone for anything, and I have to say - this stuff works great! Needed to make candle molds of an oddly specific size so I glued the existing candles to the bottom of plastic cups, mixed this stuff up at the 1:1 ratio (tip from the net: pour, mix, pour into a second container, mix again, THEN pour into your mold), filled the cups, and after eight hours I cut the cups away and the wax candles slipped right out of the cured silicone. Perfect molds, no air bubbles, tested them out the next day and they work great! AND they’re elastic enough that I can roll the lip of the mold down to get a grip on the candle without worrying about tears.(For my purposes any color would have worked, but definitely a fan of the jade color too. No color leeching either!)Definitely going to order another batch, what you see in the video used up *just* about all of it - 12 small candle holders, 4 tall ones, and a wee bit of overpour. PLENTY to use on a larger scale project!
First attempt and it worked perfect!
I do a lot of 3D printing, but I needed to make a part that was both flexible and durable that I couldn't 3D print. Partly because of the shape, and partly because my printer can't handle super-flexible filament.I saw this stuff on Bolo and it seemed like it might work, so I ordered the small kit. I then 3D printed a mold in PLA, then coated the parts that needed to be smooth in XTC-3D epoxy. For the parts where surface didn't matter, I just left the raw PLA, layer lines and all. Because of the odd shape, I had to make a 4-part mold that could be screwed together.Once the epoxy was dry, I mixed up a batch of this BBDINO silicone, being careful to be as precise as possible with measuring. After mixing thoroughly, I took a 60ml syringe and sucked up all the silicone mix and then squirted it through the access hole in the top of my mold until it started coming out of the vent holes.At first it went pretty well, but after a couple minutes the silicone started seeping through the joints of the mold. I figured that might happen since this stuff is pretty thin - which is a good thing for getting it to flow into all nooks and crannies of the mold, but I should have done a better job sealing it. I made a frantic effort to tape up the seams to try and stop the leaks. Fortunately, it worked for the most part. But because a little bit leaked out, I didn't have quite enough to fill to the top anymore, so I quickly mixed up a second small batch and injected that as well. No big deal. I left the syringe sitting in the filler with a little excess in it so it would top off the mold if any more leaked out as it cured.Unfortunately, I got a little impatient and pulled the syringe out about an hour later, before it was completely cured and the "plug" for the hole pulled out with it because it was still soft. It didn't hurt anything in the end, other than to leave a slight dip in the finished surface instead of a plug that could be cut flush. Lesson learned.I couldn't wait to see how it came out. The instructions say to wait 5 hours before demolding, but I did it after a little more than 4. It was perfect! (other than the dip mentioned above). In order to completely remove it from the mold I had to stretch it around parts to get it loose. It's quite durable! I had to stretch quite a bit and it showed no signs of tearing. There was a lot of flashing from where it had leaked into the joints of the mold, but that was easy enough to trim off. They even supply a tool for doing so, though I didn't try it.It picked up every detail of the mold, including of course the layer lines. I had no trouble with it sticking to anything. Even the rough layer lines of the PLA. It came out of the syringe and mixing cups easily too, just by pulling on it.I have to say I am thrilled with how things turned out. I will definitely be using this stuff again if I need to make more squishy parts.
