First coat
de air slurry
-prewash
-check viscosity and flow onto wax sample
-dipping or pouring, plastic sheet for larger pieces
-use of brush, blowing
-draining
-stucco
-importance of drying
Second coat
-thinner slurry
-stucco
-importance of moving air
-dry first two coats
Third and
subsequent coats
-slurry viscosity same as second coat
-larger stucco
-4 to 5 coats total
-final overnight drying
Back dipping
-after dewax
-use of fibreglas
The day is spent applying further shell coats and over-viewing the theory. Moulds used to produce multiple waxes are also demonstrated.
