Modelmaking

Model makers throughout the United States know that Reynolds carries silicone rubbers and liquid plastics as the perfect combination to reproduce their creations and drive production.

Smooth-On’s Mold Max Silicones have become the industry standard for making molds that capture very fine detail down to a “finger-print”. With several to choose from, the Mold Max line covers most mold making scenarios and offers the model maker tremendous versatility.  These materials are also used by firearms manufacturers, holster makers, law enforcement agencies, gun stock fabricators, museums, grip manufacturers and more.

Smooth-Cast plastics and TASK plastics are then used to cast into these molds to make exact reproductions. SO Strong color tints and a variety of fillers can be added to create an infinite number of effects. Cured plastics are also easily painted , giving the user complete creative control over the modeling outcome.
