Description

Wax 15 is a white, low shrinkage, dense, hard, blend of wax and minerals that can be cast and carved. It replicates the mold surface detail and finish when cast. Tool cuts are smooth and radiant. Use a soft cloth to hand polish dull surfaces to a satin gleam.

Methods of Use

Wax 15 can be poured in 74 Series, Fast 72-40, Silicone, Gel and Alginate N molds. To soften latex, make continual pours of Wax 15. A small trial casting is always recommended to be sure castings release satisfactorily and do not damage the mold material, although most heat resistant resins and metal molds are suitable. Due to high mineral content, Wax 15 cannot be burned out.

Caution

Hot wax ignites easily and can cause severe burns. Do not heat with open flame. Do not heat higher than 300ºF as vapors can ignite.
