Frequently Asked Questions

How many rakhi centres does this mould make at once?
It has 5 cavities, so you cast five centres per pour, each about 1 Inch (2.5cm).

How is this different from the round rakhi moulds?
This one makes five mixed shapes of about 1 Inch (2.5cm); the round rakhi moulds make six rounds of 3cm.

Can I use UV resin in this mould?
Yes. The cavities are shallow, so UV resin cured under a UV lamp in thin layers works well. Epoxy resin also works for a single pour.

Should I pick epoxy resin or UV resin for rakhis?
UV resin cures in minutes under a UV lamp but only in thin layers, so it suits quick small batches. Epoxy resin needs hours to cure but takes a full pour, so it suits larger batches made ahead.
