To make a lasting mold of your plaster life casting, what do you suggest? I saw the brush on latex on artmolds site. Do you just brush it on, let it dry and no other steps? That is hard enough to repour plaster in? I want to make permanent molds of my casts from hands to torsos. Should I use a brush on latex or something pourable?
Any suggestions/advice are most welcome. Thankyou!

Definately silicone or urethane if you're just casting plaster into it. Silicone is good for resins and plastics. I would stay away from Latex as it shrinks ALOT when drying and takes layers and layers (takes a long time to make the mold). Check out Polytek and Smooth-On websites for mold making. Make sure your life cast is sealed before putting silicone or urethane on it though.
