How Do You Make Wax Molds For Plaster?

You can make plaster replicas of almost anything, including body parts, with Flexwax, a product of Amaco. It is solid at room temperature and melts at 120 degrees Fahrenheit, a comfortably warm temperature that allows contact with skin without burning. You can also make molds from inanimate objects with Flexwax as well.

Though there are other wax products you can use, such as carveable wax and sculpting wax, the ease of using Flexwax is a good introduction to mold making. Apply petroleum jelly liberally on the model or other item from which you will take the mold. Place the Flexwax in the double boiler and place that on the stove.

Turn the heat to low and increase the temperature very slowly until the wax melts completely. Reduce the heat until the wax is at 125 degrees Fahrenheit. Brush the wax onto the model or item from which you will make the mold.

Alternatively, you can dip the item or body part into the melted wax, or you can pour the wax over the item you wish to mold. Quickly ... more.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest.
