The Importance of Transparency in Silicone Molds for Better Results

In the world of resin, there are details that may seem minor at first glance but make a significant difference in the final outcome.

One such detail — often underestimated — is the transparency of the silicone mould.

Have you ever used a resin mould, invested time, care, and materials… only to find, upon demoulding, an air bubble or flaw that ruins the entire piece?
In many cases, the problem isn’t with the resin or your technique — it’s simply that you couldn’t see what was happening inside the mould during the curing process.

Benefits of Translucent Moulds for Resin: Why Choose Them

One of the main advantages of translucent silicone moulds is that they allow continuous visual control during curing.
This means you can intervene in real time to fix bubbles or areas where the resin isn’t distributing properly.

Many makers ask: Why use translucent moulds with epoxy resin?
The answer is simple: you avoid having to redo a piece due to a mistake that could have been prevented.

How to Avoid Air Bubbles in Resin Moulds with Pure Mold

Air bubbles are one of the most common and frustrating issues when working with resin.
With opaque moulds, you often won’t notice the bubbles until it’s too late.

With translucent moulds like Pure Mold, spotting bubbles is easy: you can see them forming in real time and move or adjust the mould before the resin sets.

Best Moulds for Rotocasting with Resin: A Choice That Makes a Difference

Rotocasting requires an even distribution of resin along the inner walls of the mould.
Using translucent moulds lets you observe how the resin behaves during the process, allowing you to adjust your movements, dosage, or angles to avoid errors.
