Siraya Tech Defiant 25 Platinum Silicone Mold Making DIY Kit, Food Safe, 25A Hardness, Ideal for 3D Printer UV Resin, Easy to Stop Curing Inhibition, No Coating, for Casting Epoxy Resin (35.3 Oz)

This stuff is fun to use. I made some chocolate molds with it, and I'm really pleased with the resulting chocolates. It molded around PLA (3-D printed models) very well. It kept so much detail that I was able to print the models on a holographic surface, which transferred to the mold, which transferred all the way to the chocolate and made excellent party favors. I used a vacuum pot and vacuumed the mixture 3x before pouring to get all the bubbles out. The working time is supposed to be 15 minutes, but it felt like it was starting to get gloopy around 13 minutes. I was working in a fairly warm environment at the time.

Works brilliantly. Takes mica pigment well and the self degassing is effective. Used for a few different projects now and it is quite durable when demolding/removing from form and is a good mix between stiffness and flexibility in general. Sets quickly while still allowing a good working time and gentle tapping/vibration should help any bubbles fully escape. Seems to handle small amounts of UV resin just fine although if you are casting a resin print I would recommend a topcoat just to be safe. Mixes well and cleans up just fine I should note too.

Works great! Came quick

Okay so my second time trying to write this review is for some reason Amazon itself crashed on my mobile device. The material when compared directly against an off-the-shelf silicone fared better. The off-the-shelf silicone being cheaper and more plentiful had a far harder time being removed from the test object. Now unfortunately given the cost of this material I've not done much testing with it as much as I would like to. Because to do a lot of good testing I need a rather large substantial source of it. And in casting you're going to use a good quantity. Unfortunately what you get in the containers is enough for maybe 2 good casts. So quantity versus cost is not in line with what I would like. That's not necessarily A fault of the product itself it's just that I would like to see the company offer a larger container of this stuff. Without you know a crazy hiking cost. Now the primary thing that I didn't like about this material and it goes as an unresolved issue. Was of the two times that I have used it in testing the very first time it took several days for it to cure and I'm not really quite sure why. I don't believe the substance requires a UV light here. The second time I did expose it to UV just in case. But I do not know that that had anything to do with it. I'm assuming it has something to do with external ambient temperature and exposure to atmosphere. But the second time that I used it I had better results and it did you overnight. I hope to get more casting in in the future and to be able to return better results and even perhaps a warning if possible to those who want to use it regarding specifics of what is necessary to get a Best use cure time.

Used an SLA resin printer and wanted to make a silicon mold of it. 3 other 'top' amazon platinum silicon brands all gave me the same result - a gooey mess that wouldn't cure against the printed part. I was super skeptical that the Defiant product would be able to solve a problem that many others had and still use platinum curing. Well, they did it. Silicon cured with absolutely no cure inhibition. Bravo, guys.

Really high quality silicone. I don't use silicone often, but this has been my go to. Hardens well, and is bubble free. Mixes easy and the cure time is pretty quick.

I bought this so I could cast some 3D printed Dice Masters. A friend of mine managed to print me some using a resin 3D printer, and I was so excited to finally get my own logo on my dice. I knew I'd have to buy some sort of inhibitor product in order to cast them and when I saw videos about this product I was really eager to try it. Unfortunately it was a waste of money. It had absolutely zero inhibition effect when I tried to cast some test dice. I mixed the silicone properly and let the casting sit for half a day, but the silicone was still sticky and gooey around the dice. I tried it again on another dice thinking it was just a fluke, and nope... still a sticky gooey mess. An absolute waste of my time and money. Very upset because it cost me just as much as a bottle of Inhibit X would have cost.

Very simple, strong and cures in around 3 hours.

I picked up the Siraya Tech Defiant 25 Platinum Silicone kit to make dice molds for my resin projects, and honestly, I was impressed from start to finish. I’ve tried a few different silicones over the years, but this one stood out for a couple of reasons. Easy Mold Making, Even for First-Timers Mixing the silicone parts was genuinely straightforward—just combine, mix thoroughly, and pour. I wasn’t worried about missing the pot life or it getting too thick way too fast. What really sold me was how smoothly it flowed around my dice masters and settled into all the small details. If you’re worried about bubbles or fine print not coming out, don’t be; the results were crisp. No Curing Headaches One of the frustrations with making molds using 3D printed pieces is the risk of curing inhibition, but this silicone just worked. I didn’t need to coat my models or do anything special; it cured perfectly next to my UV resin prints—no sticky spots or half-cured messes. Awesome for Dice The 25A hardness is just right—it holds its shape but doesn’t feel like a brick when you’re demolding. My finished dice popped out cleanly, and the molds have lasted through a few sets without stretching or tearing. The translucency of the cured silicone also made it easy to check for air bubbles before the mix set up, which saved me from having to remake molds. Works Seamlessly With Siraya Tech Fast Navy Grey Resin A huge bonus for me has been using these molds with the Siraya Tech 2kg Fast Navy Grey resin. The silicone and resin work together perfectly—no curing issues, and the detail from the mold comes through clearly in the final casts. The Fast Navy Grey resin cures reliably in these molds without sticking or leaving any residues, so every dice pour came out crisp and clean. Great Value & Size The amount in the kit is generous, and I got several dice molds out of one batch with some left over. For anyone making custom dice, the kit’s size and ease of use make it a practical, reliable choice. Would I Recommend It? Absolutely. If you want an easy mold-making experience—especially for detailed work like dice or resin crafts with popular resins like the Siraya Tech Fast Navy Grey—I’d say give the Siraya Tech Defiant 25 a shot. It took the stress out of the process and gave me professional-looking results with less prep and cleanup.

Absolut großartig. Keine negativen Reaktionen mit 3D-Resin (solange man sich an die Vorgaben beim vorbereiten der 3D-Drucke hält) Das weiche Silikon macht es sehr einfach Abformungen heraus zu holen. Kann dieses Silikon nur wärmstens empfehlen!

3Dプリンタで成形したものを、大量生産と考え、シリコンモールドを初めて作りました。扱いやすく、とても簡単に作れました。リピートしてます。

Top spul geen bubbels en snel hard

alles bestens vielen dank !
