Default ridgid mold material

Can someone suggest the best product for me to use to make a rigid
mold. Also what I will need to keep the casting agent from sticking to
the mold and a weather proof product to do my casting with? Thanks for
any suggestions.

Mike, there's a lot of variables---what substance do you want to cast, for
one? Polymer clay makes a dandy rigid mold, and we often use talcum or
cornstarch or water as a mold release. Many of us use a platinum-silicone
RTV mold material for a NON rigid mold. You can also find info he

they have MANY different kinds of molding substances.
Good luck!
