Accurate Mould Making with Mr.Hobby Silicone

Mr.Hobby GSI-VM001 contains 1kg of silicone plus a 40ml hardening agent to produce detailed moulds for scale modelling and component replication. The set is aimed at modellers who need crisp edges and fine texture retention.

Why Modellers Use This Product

The GSI-VM001 formulation preserves small features while offering enough durability for multiple casts. It works well for reproducing delicate items, creating spares and supporting one-off custom parts jobs.

Practical Hints for Clean Results

Stir the 40ml hardener evenly into the 1kg silicone and avoid whipping air into the mix. Keep dust away from the master, pour in a controlled flow and allow full cure time at room temperature for the best detail and strength.

Will this work for very fine detail like instrument faces?

Yes, when mixed and poured carefully the silicone captures fine surface detail such as dials and textured panels, especially if you use a thin initial coat.

Can I paint items cast from these moulds?

Most cast resins can be painted after full cure and proper surface prep. Test paint adhesion on a sample cast and use suitable primers for best results.

How easy is demoulding with this silicone?

The silicone's flexibility aids demoulding for detailed pieces, but design shallow undercuts or use a release agent where necessary to simplify removal.

What storage conditions preserve performance?

Store silicone and hardener in sealed containers away from moisture and extreme temperatures. Keep products in their original packaging and follow shelf life guidance.
