what a timely video! I have a life-size hollow bust that I will be working on for a friend, and I was thinking about an expanding foam to fill it but was unsure which to use. I think either of the last two would suit my purpose, as I would like to embed a tube in the foam to allow it to sit on a supporting pole, thanks!
Great video. A question about the LD40 please. If it was used inside a mould with polystyrene would it melt the polystyrene? I'm guessing it's an exothermic reaction but wondering how hot it gets. Cheers
Hi, it can be fairly hot and certainly warm even in fairly small castings, It would also be worthwhite testing the compatiblity of the foam vs the polystyrene to ensure its not causing the cells to breakdown further etc.
The LD40 would be water resistant (the rigid 145 would also to an extent). We wouldn't class either as waterproof. The LD40 is commonly used for bouyance on small boats etc.
Materials are not toxic, when mixed and cured properly they are inert. Winter is tough on the hands and weren't looking to good on video so gloves where used to protect the viewers eyes

@@MBFibreglass thanks for the info. I'll certainly do some tests 👍

is it waterproof?

Why are they wearing gloves? Is it toxic?

I use your products all the time in my videos..if I get a bigger following could we do a collab?
Yes, no problem, will keep you in mind, thanks for sharing or details, much appreciated.
