Works really well, good for newbies
I've wanted to make silicone molds for years and always found the material to be too expensive. This seemed to be the right price. I've now created multiple molds with this material and have had no issues whatsoever. The molds came out bubble-free and were successful in casting plaster.For ease-of-use and to use less material, this is how I used this kit:1. Place a container on a digital scale, zero-out (tare) the scale.2. Pour part A into this container, take note of its weight.3. Pour part B until the scale reads two-times what it did for Part A.4. Stir slowly with the included popsicle stick. For a standard soup can, I would make one rotation in 4 or 5 seconds.While stirring, scrape the sides and touch the bottom of the mixing container periodically to ensure all material is incorporated into your mix. Don't remove the stirrer or go fast as it can incorporate bubbles.Finally, pour the silicone mixture very slowly into your mold box but not on the item itself. It is less likely for air bubbles to be trapped by pouring to the side of the item instead of onto it. I held my soup can around 2 feet high and allowed a very fine stream to flow into the box. The overall pouring time was between 3-5 minutes.I didn't use the included silicone measuring cups and feel it is unnecessary for what I'm doing, as well as a potential waste of material (material remains after you pour it, and this stuff comes with a premium).It was too cool outside here for proper curing (less than 70F), so I took a small space heater which measures about 6" tall, placed it in front of the mold, then laid a box over everything, with one side of the box resting on top of the heater. This allowed the temperature inside the box to get quite warm (80-85F - ish), and it cured no problem.Finally, I was able to pour plaster of Paris and cast my pieces which came out lovely. No bubbles in the final plaster product. Quite satisfied with the results and this product.

Works very well
Works like they say it does. I made a mold of a frog and have cast about 30 in concrete from that mold. One of the easiest molds I have to use. Nice for drop molds not glove molds. Mold is ready quickly in comparison to latex and fiberglass.

Great product
This product did not disappoint. It cures fast and no bubbles. It’s extremely flexible and easy to remove from the molds . It’s great quality and the value is definitely there for the price I will buy again next time.

Won't cure in cool temperature
Works well and created many projects with this size. You cannot create in cool or cold area because it won't cure. Warmer the better for quicker cure time and results. Easy to sand and polish as well. Clear results and adding color pigment is easy.

Great Silicone
Pretty darn good silicone. Set up fast and easy to mix and work with. I'll buy this when I need to make a mold.

Great for how much it is!
Considering the price and the amount you're getting, the quality is excellent. The cure time is quick, taking only 5-7 hours, making it very convenient, and it molds with great detail. Once fully cured, it’s hardly sticky at all, and the flexibility is impressive.

Not sticky!
This stuff is the best I’ve used. I used other brands before and sometimes they left my molds sticky, but these come out perfect every time. I make picky pads to curve my skin picking habits and this product is very helpful!

"Safety" cap lead to slicing my finger open
First I would like to point out the silicone mix is fine. It seemingly does a good job setting up. But my low review score is more directed at the containers, specifically the "safety" cap. In function, it appears to work the same as any typical safety cap for things like medicine and such, simply push down and rotate. However, on the containers I received, over time the mechanism involved stripped and I couldn't get the lids off. In my frustration I gave up and grabbed my trusty box knife to cut the tops off the bottles, and in my haste the box knife slipped and went right into my finger, prompting a quick trip to the ER.I understand the need for safety when it comes to hazardous chemicals and a need for some safety measures to keep curious young kids from hurting themselves, but in this case, the solution was poorly executed and caused frustration that led to a hasty knee-jerk reaction that just caused other safety issues.
