| 1 | A one-part ready-to-use adhesive that works equally well on both wet or damp molds. Just apply Mend-a-Mold on the broken pieces and press together. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| 2 | Apply pressure while adhesive sets – a rubber band or banding strap may used. Be sure to remove any excess adhesive from inside of mold with wet sponge. After 2-3 hours, your mold is read to use. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| 3 | Mix together mold plaster and cold water to replace missing part of mold. (The plaster and water mixture should be equal parts by weight. Remember, powder is dry weight and water is liquid weight.) You should have approximately 5-10 minutes working time. | |||||||||||||||||||||||

Disadvantaged of Using Milk or Glue Condensed milk grows bacteria in your mold and comes apart leaving mildew on surface and sour odors after a few castings. Elmer’s waterproof glue is so thick that you’re unable to get a tight fit, which results in a larger seam line. Also, the moisture absorbed into the mold during slip casting is trapped behind the waterproof glue film, causing the greenware to hang up in mold and not release properly. Also, the greenware will have a hot spot where water has not absorbed correctly. Advantages of Using Mend-a-Mold Mend-a-Mold prevents bacteria growth. Mend-a-Mold allows water from the slip to pass through the glue film without releasing the glue. Therefore, the mended area eliminates hard spots on the greenware, and ensures the mold will release properly when empti | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
