Silver Wrapped with choice of White, Pink, Blue or Red ribbon. If ribbon colour not specified we'll use White.

Herculite 2 is a strong and fast setting plaster that reproduces fine detail and sets with a nice white finish.

Do not let ANY plaster come into contact with skin or paws - you need BabyRice Alginate to make your impression mould of hands, feet, paws and other body parts, then once you have your impression mould, you then use Herculite 2 plaster to fill your mould which then makes the plaster cast. You can find BabyRice Alginate in our Etsy shop.

Herculite 2 plaster is harder and far more durable than other types of plaster, such as plaster of Paris. Herculite 2 is the perfect option for projects such as hand casting, body moulds, model making and other decorative objects that will be handled frequently.

The white surface finish of the Herculite makes it a perfect base for a lovely paint finish, should you decide to paint your cast.

Supplied in a variety of sizes and always with basic instructions for water - powder ratio mix. Choose from:

500g bag
800g bag
1kg bag
1.5kg bag
1.6kg (2 x 800g bags)
2kg (2 x 1kg bags)
5kg container with resealable lid
10kg (2 x 5kg containers)
25kg sack

For life casts
If you are looking to make 3D hand/foot moulds then purchase some BabyRice Skin Safe Alginate to make your impression moulds first, then this plaster can be used to fill in your mould impression and hence you are then left with a 3D hand/foot cast.

When used to create a cast from an alginate impression mould, BabyRice Herculite 2 produces highly detailed casts that capture every detail of body parts, right down to the last wrinkle.

Please note: When creating life casts, you should never let wet plaster come into contact with skin. Plaster should only be used to pour into the alginate impression mould.

Fast setting casting plaster
BabyRice Herculite 2 is a fast setting casting plaster. Small objects, such as baby hand casts will typically set in 5-15 minutes. Larger objects, such as adult hands and family hand casts, will typically set within 35-60 minutes. (Plaster setting times vary depending on the size of the object, room temperature and ambient conditions.)

Painting your plaster casts
Like all plasters, Herculite is highly porous, making it extremely absorbent. Always paint your plaster casts with an acrylic paint that has been formulated to adhere to plaster, such as those supplied by BabyRice.

When life casting from an alginate impression mould, your plaster cast may take on the pink colour of the alginate, but this will fade as plaster dries, leaving a clean white cast.
