How To Use Alja‑Safe™ Alginate to Cast Silicone Body Parts

Step 1: Preparing Materials

Begin by creating a containment field to hold the Alja-Safe™ molding gel. Tape a plastic tube along the seam line to ensure stability and adhere the plastic tube to a board using clay. Make sure the tube is completely secure - hot melt glue may also be used.

Alja-Safe™ molding gel is a powder that is mixed in equal parts with water. Measure out the appropriate amount of water. With water (80°F/ 27°C), Alja-Safe™ will have a working time of 8 minutes and a demold time of 10 minutes.
