Hi There,

Can someone advise me on the best combination of resin materials to create a vacuum form mould?

The vacuum mould will be used to create the body for a 1/10 scale radio control car in polycarbonate, I have a plaster cast that i plan to use to cast the resin into, but i'm not sure what resin resmaterials would be best to create the final mould ready for vac forming.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,

I would recommend our Vac Cast Epoxy Casting Resin for Vacuum Forming Tools as it has been especially formulated for the task and is ideal for smallish to medium size moulds.
