Alginate by Accu-Cast Fast Set

Alginate formulated for hand casting jobs, this color-changing alginate tells you when to put your hands in. 380-CC powder is white. When you add water it changes to a bright bubble-gum pink. If you're using 80°F water, the pink will fade to white at about 2 minutes 15 seconds. That's when you need to put your hands in.

The alginate should be set (dry on the surface) at 3 minutes and you can take your hands out at 3 minutes 30 seconds. With 90°F water, it will fade at ~1:35 and set (dry surface) at ~2:30, with hands "out" at 3:00. Best when mixed at water/powder ratios between 4:1 and 5:1 (by weight), or about 1:1 by volume.

Mixes smooth and creamy, sets rubbery and strong. Easy to get your hands out of. Stone models come out smooth and detailed.

Sets in 3 minutes.
