How To Make a Face Casting with Alja‑Safe® Crystalline Silica‑Free Alginate

Step 5: Casting Final Piece with duoMatrix‑G

duoMatrix® NEO polymer-modified gypsum measured 2 Parts A : 1 Part B by Volume will be used to make a casting from the mold. The duoMatrix® NEO liquid is poured into the mixing container first, followed by the powder. A Squirrel Mixer attached to a power drill is used to mix the batch of duoMatrix® NEO thoroughly and fast. The duoMatrix® NEO is cast into the mold after being thoroughly mixed.

After 60 minutes, the duoMatrix® NEO casting is ready to be demolded. The first step in this demolding is to remove the support shell first. The Alja-Safe® alginate mold is then carefully removed from the casting, leaving the model with an exact replica casting of his face.
