DIFFERENT MEDIUMS.
IOD Moulds can be used with many different mediums. We will cover the two most common here. Every medium has its own characteristics, challenges, and virtues.

AIR DRY CLAY: This is an air dry medium, and one of our favorites. Like most paper pulp based air dry clays, some shrinking and cracking is inherent. The cracks help with a distressed, authentically vintage look but if you prefer to avoid cracks it's helpful to slow down the drying process. You can slow down the drying by painting the mould while it's still soft. Our favorite way to apply moulded pieces is to remove them from the mould while still moist, and adhere to the surface with the appropriate glue so it conforms well. For vertical surfaces, use a piece of low tack tape to hold it in place so it doesn’t slide.

CASTING RESINS: There are some great pourable resins available. These have completely different qualities than the paper clay. There is no shrinking or warping, and the castings are more consistent. Depending on the project, these qualities can be helpful. If you need to conform them to a curved surface, this can be done if removed from the mould before it’s completely hardened.

If you are having trouble with the material sticking in the mould (more common with clays than resins), a light dusting of simple cornstarch or arrowroot is a great choice
