When making moulds for food it is important to remember that conventional sealing agents from a hardware store should not be used. These materials should be avoided because they usually contain toxic ingredients that are not approved for direct food contact.
Seal-Dit is made from a blend of food grade waxes and specifically designed to serve as a non-toxic sealer. Seal-Dit is also an excellent sealing agent for general mould making that is not meant for food applications. The Dits are designed to be used instead of commercial adhesives, sealers and release agents which are usually poisonous and not appropriate in the production of food moulds.

CopyFlex is a food grade, liquid silicone rubber that was designed specifically for mould making.
Unlike many liquid silicones that have complicated mix ratios and very thick consistencies, CopyFlex is easy to use because equal amounts of both catalyst and base are combined to produce a silky smooth, low viscosity liquid silicone rubber that reproduces the finest details.
A 1:1 mix ratio is very convenient for large projects and also enables mould makers to easily pour moulds that may weigh as little as two ounces.
Conventional liquid silicone mould making rubber often has a cure time of 24 to 36 hours which is very long when compared to CopyFlex which will cure in five hours at 21.1degrees Celcius (70 degrees F).
To held the item in place that you are making a mould of, try using Achor-Dit and if you are making a mould made of something porous such as wood, try using Seal-Dit.

The shore strength for set CopyFlex is 35.
Our Warehouse Heroes will be working over the Bank Holiday so your orders will still be picked and packed but we will NOT have a mail collection until Tuesday 26th May. Please be aware that this will affect deliveries placed w/c 18th May and w/c 25th May.
*Delivery Delays*
To safeguard our staff and adhere to social distancing we have less staff currently packing in our warehouse. This means that unless you order for next day delivery, your order may not be dispatched the same day.
Our couriers tell us that they are experiencing very large delivery volumes (akin to Black Friday levels) as everyone is now restricted to shopping online.
This means you should expect around 48 hours added to standard delivery times.
90 - 98% of Next Day deliveries are arriving on time.
Our couriers are all working with reduced resources to safeguard their staff which we totally respect.
In short, please allow a little extra time to receive your order (it'll be worth it, we promise!) We're very thankful to the lovely couriers and our Warehouse Heroes working extra hard to deliver happy mail to us in these unprecedented times.
