Difference between Raysin 100 and Raysin 200

Raysin 100 is perfect for smaller objects and has a slightly lower strength. This makes it ideal for intricate details. Raysin 200, on the other hand, is more robust and is therefore ideal for larger moulding projects that require increased stability.

Preparing and mixing the casting compound



Silicone casting mould "Plate with grooves": approx. 12 heaped tablespoons

Silicone casting mould "Tin with grooves": approx. 5 heaped tablespoons

Silicone casting mould "Ronny tealight holders": approx. 2 heaped tablespoons

Silicone casting mould "Ronny stick candle holder", large: approx. 2 heaped tablespoons

Silicone casting mould "Stick candle holder Ronny, small": approx. 1.5 heaped tablespoons

"Fluted bowl" casting mould: approx. 8 heaped tablespoons



Start by mixing your Raysin powder with water to form a smooth, creamy mixture. Make sure that no powder settles to the bottom and that all lumps are thoroughly dissolved. A smooth mixture guarantees you an optimum result!

Pouring out the moulds

Choose a silicone casting mould that meets your requirements and pour the finished mixture into it. Gently shaking and tapping the mould will help to distribute the mixture evenly and remove any air bubbles. This ensures a particularly smooth surface for your moulded pieces.

Drying and demoulding

After about an hour is the ideal time to remove your creations from the mould. Allow them to continue drying in the air to achieve optimum strength. Remember that your castings may initially have a slight grey tint, which will disappear once they are completely dry, leaving them pure white.

Finishing the castings

Rough edges can easily be smoothed with fine sandpaper. If you want to create a lid to close a tin, for example, you can use self-adhesive cork. Skilfully cover the cut edges by cutting them cleanly.

Creative final design and candle moulding

Now comes the fun of decorating! Place a paper tealight in your tealight holder and the spiral candles in the corresponding stick candle holders. To ensure that everything is stable, place wax discs on the bottom of the holders.

Melt wax for the candle tray - measure out approx. 1.5 trays of wax for this. Organic wax with a melting point between 60 and 70 °C is ideal as it is environmentally friendly and easy to work with. Make sure that you do not exceed this temperature. Plug the wicks into their holders and dip them briefly into the liquid wax before placing them in the prepared bowl. Now carefully pour in the liquid wax.
