Mold Release

No mold release is necessary to separate wax-based modeling clay from alginate.

Making the Casting

Slice off a chunk of modeling clay that you judge to be about the right quantity. (It’s better to prepare a little too much than to run short.) Use new, uncontaminated clay for this process. Cut the chunk into small pieces and put them in a double boiler. The clay will melt when the water in the lower pan begins to boil. Wax-based clay melts at about 180° F., and it will discolor if it is exposed to too much direct heat.
