How To Rotocast Resin for Lightweight Displays

Step 4: Demold & Finsihing Piece

The cured casting reflects perfect detail and looks solid. If this piece was cast solid, it would have weighed 15 lbs./ 6.8 kgs. and cost over $100 in material cost alone.

The casting is ready to be primed and painted for display. The combination of Smooth-Cast® 65D and Foam-iT!® 5 ensures that these castings are almost indestructible. Each foam filled rotational casting weighs about 2 lbs./ .9 kg. and costs under $10. So light, you can balance a casting on one finger!
