Fine white plaster for casting, moulding and sculpting
Educational Colours Plaster of Paris 3kg, supplier code PLAST3, is a fine white plaster that Educational Colours describes as ideal for casting, moulding and sculpting, with a smooth finish.
Educational Colours says this plaster will not crack easily, and that its fine powder gives a smooth finish. The supplier states a 3kg bag makes about 2.5 litres of volume when the mixing instructions are followed. Once mixed, there are 10 minutes of working time before it starts to set, and the plaster hardens within 2 to 4 hours.
A 10 minute working window gives students time to pour a mould or shape a form before the plaster sets. Educational Colours advises leaving casts overnight to make sure they are fully set, which suits a lesson that carries over to the next day. Leave casts overnight before handling.
Mod-Wrap plaster bandage is listed separately for wrapped forms. Browse more in our craft and modelling clay, craft paints and educational craft supplies ranges, or see the wider Educational Colours collection for related products.
