How To Make a 1 Piece Silicone Cut Mold

Step 3: Demolding Original Model from Mold

Once Mold Star® 15 has cured for 4 hours, the mold box can carefully be disassembled. The mold is flipped upside down and the bottom of the mold box is removed. Flashing is trimmed from the edges of the mold and the opening of the mold cavity. To remove the original model, a seam is cut down the back of the mold.

Mold Star® 15 has great tear strength, allowing the mold to be stretched a great deal without tearing. The seam is cut down the back of the mold until the original piece can be easily removed. The original model is removed from the mold. The Mold Star® rubber captured perfect detail from the original model.
