Subject: [Puptcrit] Paper casting contacts?


All this talk about papier mache vs. neoprene.  Hardly anyone ever mentions 
the affordable line of casting products from the Cementex Co.  I've brought 
it up before, but no one seems to follow my suggestion.  I even offered to 
send Mathieu a batch but he declined and instead tried to invent his own.

I've been using the stuff for 25 years - a mixture of L200 and No. 64 
filler.  I discovered it in a brochure about the props department of the 
Metropolitan Opera in NY.  It's durable, it's long lasting and it's a 
fraction of the cost of neoprene.

This is the last I'm going to write about it.
