Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly is in the kit?
500g of moulding powder and 1200g of casting powder, 1700g in total, packed in a pouch with the instructions printed on it.

How many casts can I make?
One. The mould is broken away to release the cast, so a second cast needs a second kit.

Is it safe for a baby hand?
The moulding powder is the same kind dentists use for impressions and it sets cool. Use cool water, keep an adult holding the hand throughout, and stop if the child is uncomfortable.
