In this tutorial we cast our 10lb density flexible foam into a 73-25 silicone mold. This is a self-skinning foam that achieves a tough skin surface and works well with our metalic powders. Flexible foams skin and rise best when mixed and poured in a warm enviroment. Cold weather may impede the rise of the foam as well as lower the integrity of the skin on the cast foam.
Prop Foam is a great material for weapon props as it is not too flexible as to look fake or “wobbly.” This foam, like our others, can be pigmented with PolyColors. Silicone pigments will cause urethane foam to collapse!!
