General Mold Care and Storage Recommendations

To preserve the fine details and elastic properties of your silicone forms over time, proper handling and storage are essential. Always demold finished castings slowly and deliberately, supporting detailed sections like hat tips and beard edges rather than pulling forcefully. Avoid using sharp metal picks, knives, or coarse sponges near the interior surfaces, as scratches can dull the fine relief lines over time.

After each use, remove residual wax, soap, or casting compound by washing the form in warm water with mild dish soap. Allow the form to dry completely before storing it lying flat in its natural shape. Keep your silicone forms in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and high heat sources to maintain their flexibility and structural integrity for countless successful casting sessions.
