I've never really run into this problem but I'm making a two piece mold of a water based clay sculpture. The first half dried in a couple of hours, flipped it and did the second half and gave it about 5 hours, came back and the outside was still damp. Decided to let it sit overnight, came back to it and still the same feeling. It's now been 16 hours and its still damp and if you drag a fingernail across it the plaster comes off with no resistance.
There was no difference in method or material between the first and second half, I've got a heater on it but is there anything I can do other than that? Is this mold trash?
