Pacon - Plast'r Craft Modeling Material
Plast'r Craft Modeling Material
Build sculptural forms over any armature, then sand and paint when dry
Plaster-impregnated gauze eliminates the mess and uncertainty of traditional plaster casting. Cut strips to size, dip them in water, and smooth them over any form, crumpled newspaper armatures, Styrofoam shapes, wire frameworks, even inflated balloons. The material adheres to itself and porous surfaces as you work, building up layers that capture fine detail while maintaining structural integrity. This versatility makes Plast'r Craft equally useful for elementary classroom projects and serious sculptural maquettes.
Once dry, the hardened surface accepts sanding for smooth finishes and holds paint reliably. Multiple widths accommodate different scales: narrow strips wrap tight curves and small forms, while wider pieces cover large surfaces quickly. The gauze backing provides consistent thickness and prevents the weak spots that plague hand-mixed plaster applications.
Instructions guide setup and technique, though the process proves intuitive, wet, apply, smooth, repeat. Non-toxic formulation makes this appropriate for young students working on dioramas and masks, while experienced artists appreciate the speed and control for architectural models and theatrical props.
