Hi folks,
I am in the middle of a cosplay build and I am working on hardening my helmet piece.
I have stiffened the cardstock with brushed on casting resin, however I am about to do the proper stiffening stage inside the helmet and I wondered if anyone could confirm something before I proceed.
basically I have 2 options, do I use Rondo type material to slush cast the helmet onto the resin coated paper.
or do it slush cast more resin into the helmet making a solid plastic helmet.
This helmet is going to be a master mould for making a silicone jacket mould.
Basically can I lay polyester resin\bondo\glass fibre onto cured polyurethane resin\plastic. Or will it react and forma bubbling mess o doom?
Any help would be great as googling or searching on here is causing all kinds of probblems due to the similarities of the words, resin, casting, cured and reaction.
Any advice is welcome
