Prestige investment

Postby lklutts » Wed Jan 25, 2017 3:59 pm

Here are some pics of a ring cast with the prestige investment from stuller. Made for resins. My first cast was not good, i parttialy cured it and didn't realize until i had invested it that i had not nuked it. Still came ok. This one is great. Followed their casting schedule.

I've been using it also. I like it. You do have less time than Satincast for setup. I have had good results with resin and wax.

Is it better than Plasticast? I am about to run out of Plasticast and would like to try the Prestige if it is better.

I recive right now a bag of prestige, I switch from platicast. What burnout did you use for this investment? can I use the same ramps? The burnout official info for prestige looks very agresive.Thanks in advance.

Thank you Jewelermdt,
I was happy with Plasticast but in a few pieces with engravings I found loose investment parts and the engravings filled in.I tried add wter with boric with same result. Others came great. I hope to solve the problem with the new investment. By the way, I heard to burn the resins bottom up. Anyone tried it?
