Easy Flo Series 60, 95, 120, Easy Flo Clear
|
Super low viscosity casting resin. Low viscosity equates to easy mixing,
excellent detail penetration, and the most bubble-free castings without
employing vacuum degassing and pressure casting techniques.
Easy Flo 60 is an outstanding 1:1 (by volume), white, polyurethane plastic
with the lowest mixed viscosity available, 60 cP.
Easy Flo 95 - 5 minute working time, 20-60 minute demold time; off white, 95 cP.
Easy Flo 120 is is similar to EasyFlo 60, but designed for rotocasting, slush casting
or lay-up applications where lightweight, hollow castings are needed.
Easy Flo Clear - Great for casting with metals and other colors. Has a slight amber tint.

Poly 15 Series
Pourable casting resins. Poly 15 Series liquid plastics are useful
for production of decorative objects, parts, lightweight mold shells,
tools, models, patterns, fixtures, duplicate masters, vacuum forming
molds and general tooling use. Poly 15-6, 1512, and 1512X have the
feel and density of wood or thermoplastics and Poly 15-3 and 15- 3X
are more like stone. Poly 1512 Clear is useful for casting transparent
parts or for pigmenting/color casting. For bubble-free, clear castings,
best results are obtained with the use of vacuum and/or pressure.
Poly 1512 Clear can be used for cold cast bronze or other applications
utilizing dry fillers.

PolyFoam Series Casting Foams
PolyFoam Series Casting Foams consist of liquid Parts A and B that, after mixing, form self-skinning foams. PolyFoam can be used to cast rigid or flexible objects with densities in the range of 3-20 lb/ft³. Considered PolyFoam for production of decorative objects, lightweight mold shells, production parts, tools, models, patterns, fixtures, duplicate masters and general tooling use. PolyFoam systems do not contain toluene diisocyanate, MOCA, heavy metals or HCFCs, and are practically odorless. PolyFoam R-2, R-5 and R-8 are rigid foams. PolyFoam F-5 is flexible for casting soft parts. |

|
Poly Dye
Liquid tint ideal for adding uniform color to polyurethane casting resins such as
EasyFlo 60, EasyFlo 120, and any of the Poly 15 Series pourable resins. Available in
black, blue, red, green and yellow. |
|
|
Poly Plasti-Flex Liquid Plastic
Poly Plasti-Flex Liquid Plastic is flexible making it ideal for casting decorative trim
and molding that needs to be mounted on a curved or uneven surface. Plasti-Flex
can also be used to make special effects castings and props and impact resistant
forms, tools, and parts. Plasti-Flex has a wood-like density and can be drilled,
sanded, nailed, and screwed. |
|
|
Metal Powders - Copper, Brass, Bronze
|
|
Metal powder can be added to Forton MG or polyurethane casting resins
to produce a cold cast piece with a metal surface. Various patinas
can then be applied to the metal surface to achieve any desired look. |

Metal Coating B
These coatings adhere to most surfaces, except mirror smooth, by any
technique (air brush, sponge, brush, etc.). patinas must be applied within 3-15 minutes of application, however,
an additional clear coat is not needed. Patinas may be added to metal
coating B either wet or dry. However, B is not self-sealing. A clear
coat should be added to protect the patina. B can also be burnished
back to create a nice shine. Made of ground metal in a water base.
|
|
Metal Coating C
This metal coating is water based like A & B, except it does not contain any resins or
epoxies. It cures so hard that it may be polished with a buffing wheel as if it were a
piece of metal. Available in copper and bronze. |
