How does it Compare to the shrinkage of other mold making materials?
ComposiMold is a hydrocolloid based mold
material, which means that its shrinkage is affected by humidity and time. The
shrinkage can be controlled by storing the mold in a sealed bag or a sealed
container. If you store the mold in a tightly sealed container the mold shrinkage
can be as low as .1%. If the mold is left out on a dry winter day the mold can
shrink by 2% in 24 hours, and will shrink even more if left uncovered.
