or it seems like the Plasti-Cast breaks down at a point and dosent remain to its form of the bracelet. Its a thick bracelet
All in its 2.5dwt in resin so its a big casting... Think this investment will help? Here's a pic from todays 3rd casting that didnt work.
EVERYTHING else I do is perfect.
This link has a 360 pic! https://spinzam.com/shot/?idx=3520

Its really a good investment.
Yes. I think your problem will be solve cause your cast pic is like my casted models before i switch to optima.

What burnout program did you use to get those results?
Normally I wouldn't buy that kind of stuff from Stuller, but when my box of PlastiCast runs out, I'd consider giving it a try.
Its like satin cast but not in resin casting result. It has really smooth surface.
It has a special burnout cycle on its pdf(added below)
(Note:Leave flask for 3 hours after pouring investment in it)
But you can use your normal burnout cycle. Just you have to stay in 780c-800c degrees for 2 hours before going to cast temp. You know to let resin burn completely.
And its investment mixing is in pdf too.
