Then mix gently and let the air bubbles rise. Never add water after mixing. Slowly pour the plaster along the side of the mould. For complex shapes, empty and start a second time.
Tips :
- Cold water slows the setting of the plaster, hot water or beating accelerates it.
- To speed up drying, place the object for a few moments in the microwave oven.
- Milk mixed with water will polish the object giving it a marbled appearance.
- Add an acrylic color to the water to color the plaster in the mass. Widespread in the preparation, it will give marbled effects.
