The best way to store the stones is by covering them in plastic at temperatures above 70F(20C) degrees for about 12 hours.
Please note: The mold is pre-released. No release agent required for the 1-st casting.
Do not store the curing stone in direct sunlight for the first 7 days, at least.
A light weight concrete mix can be used for a wall veneer stone, or patio applications to make light weight concrete
We also offer mold release agent for concrete stone manufacturers
Release agent will aid in releasing concrete or gypsum plaster castings from rubber molds. Release agent provides a clean, positive release and does not interfere with or affect surface detail and helps minimize air bubbles in finished castings. Properly used, mold release improves molding efficiency for a variety of casting applications and will actually lengthen the life of your production mold.
