ULTRACAL 30 Gypsum Cement - Plaster - for Dot Mandala, Mold Making and Casting, Ideal for Latex Molds! Takes Excellent Detail (10 lb)

this product was recommended by happydottingco.com to use with their silicone casting molds. it is perfect, bubble free finish, extremely smooth and easy to use for a first time caster.

Utilized this to make a cast of an oil based clay sculpture for mask making. Worked well for that and was easy to work with - although curing was slower due to a lower outdoor temperature. Easy to mix by hand.

Very sturdy and easy to work with. My creations came out smooth and hard. I will buy it again.

As a newbie to Mandala painting and living in an area where the right shaped rocks are hard to find, making your own was deemed necessary. I found that the use of ULTRACAL 30 was not as difficult as the instructions seemed to make out. I have poured my own stones, of the perfect shape and size, and found I could sell half the result for enough to purchase my next bag for my own use. A perfect stone is the best starting place to find yourself. They are smooth and perfect as the molds and do not fall apart if dropped. All in all, they are the best place to start. ULTRACAL 30 is the perfect product for the person striving for perfection in the hobby of Mandala painting.

Try a different product if you can. This is good, but a very pricey way to go for crafting.

I ordered molds to make my on mandala painting rocks and tea light candles. The box is surprisingly small and dense. The cement comes in a well sealed bag. Wear a mask so you don't inhale the fine powder. Have purchased it several times. Highly recommend.

Easy to mix and dries smooth. Hardens quickly. Highly recommend for making your own mandala rocks

Great product, and great customer service from the seller. I asked a question and received an answer almost immediately.Ive used this product primarily with silicone molds for planters, but it is smooth and easy to work with. I could see using it for numerous things and highly recommend it!
