Specifically designed for doing face molds, FaceGel™ is also ideal for heads and other medium sized Layup molds – where alginate is placed onto a vertical surface. FaceGel™ (590) has a unique formulation which allows for the alginate to self-thicken to reduce slumping on a vertical surface. Less waste also equals more economy.

• Mixes thicker than normal alginates
• Sets in about 5 minutes when using 90°F water
• Doesn’t drip like ordinary alginates – stays where you put it
• Sets gradually from the inside out – ideal for face castings
• Sets very flexibly and tough
• Loses water very slowly to evaporation

Approximate requirements:

• A face mold takes only 3-4 ounces of FaceGel™
• A half torso takes about .75 to 1 pound
• A head casting takes about 1.5 pounds
