Hey there,
Just been experimenting with the Silicone Mould Resin Casting Kit and have achieved good results so far, but I do have a question regarding the Silicone curing time:
Is there any way to speed it up?
I've seen online places that suggest increasing the ratio of silicone to catalyst from 100:5/20:1 to something a little higher, but obviously the pot says 100:2-5 and I don't want to go overboard and end up with something that is unusable!
Thanks for your time,
Paul
