1lb Plaster of Paris

This is a great plaster of Paris if you're trying to do something that you need to set and you needed to set quick so that it's hard and ready to go! I've never used plaster of Paris and I'll tell you this is the best one after 24 hours it was rock hard and it's didn't take two or three minutes for it to be ready to set so you can make it horrible or you can make it a little thicker to use as a grout on Mosaic but better be ready to just use it because it sits instantly

I bought this plaster for a home decorating project and I was honestly surprised at how easy it was to work with. I used it to secure some artificial flowers in a base so they would be firmly in place and stable. Then I placed that base inside a decorative vase, and the result was very pretty and sturdy. The mixture is quite smooth and easy to work with if you follow the correct proportions with water. I also liked that it dries relatively quickly and helps keep everything firmly in place. After drying, the material feels firm and strong. The texture is also quite smooth and clean. The package lasts quite a while for several small projects, and I found it very practical for crafts and home decorating.

Harden’s very fast. Does not allow much moulding time.

This will be good for getting mom’s footprints in plaster Paris. She was a little girl when she was outside walking and wet cement so there are footprints nearby so I would like to get them put in and make them a little art project having sitting where mom was. Before she passed.

If you’ve never used Plaster of Paris (P of P) this review could help. You have 10 min to use it before it hardens. Once it does, it can’t be revived. It’s possible, however, to add water to it before it hardens completely if you time it correctly. The product won’t return to the consistency it was when it was initially mixed but if there are spots that were missed on the first pass, adding water to the remaining material will offer a much thinner paste to finish the job. VERY IMPORTANT: Add ice cubes to the water to make it as cold as possible. This will lengthen the amount of time to use it before it hardens. Remove the ice cubes from the water before adding the plaster. Sprinkle the plaster over the water not the other way around. Allow the plaster to sink into the water. Gently move the container (a flat, disposable one) back an forth. Continue sifting the plaster tower the water. Stir gently after about half of the plaster’s been added. Aggression stirring will cause tiny bubbles to form. You absolutely don’t want bubbles. You also don’t want to add th plaster in teaspoons or tablespoons to hurry the process along. This will only create clumps that simply can’t be stirred or mashed away. Make certain the surface to which the P of P will be applied is within reach and ready to go. Don’t consider putting in a load of laundry or taking a phone call after you’ve mixed the plaster, I used it to fill holes and gouges on the curvilinear area of a mirror where the consistency had to be fairly thin. Decide in advance how you’ll apply the P of P. You won’t have time to figure it out or dash to find the right tool after it’s been mixed. The price and quality of this plaster is great. The seller is too. No dawdling!

Sinceramente este yeso es lindo, el acabado es perfecto, pero tiene un detalle muy malo, seca muy rápido lo cual hace que no puedas verter todo el yeso a tu molde 💔

Good

Easy to use. You get a bunch for the price

Super easy takes 30 minutes to hardener enough for kids to paint on!! Would suggest buying bigger quantities if you want to do alot more molds. One pound bag was able to produce 16 letters! Will 100% order again

Easy to mix good instructions worked well for what we needed. 1lb doesn't go that far order more than you think you need. 1 bag made 3 small baby handprints.

Very easy to use. Mix to whatever consistency you need it to be.

parfait pour mes projet train miniature

I bought this for a personal art project I was doing and it worked perfectly. Highly recommend if you want a good plaster for sculpting 3D mountains on a canva with oil or acrylic accents.
