Health and Safety

When mould making there are obviously precautions you have you take to ensure everything goes smoothly and you do not get injured.

Health and Safety:
- Wear old clothes when dealing with silicone as it will damage your clothing and will not come out.
- When creating the silicone solution make sure you use a different stick and gloves for silicone tub A and silicone tub B. If either become contaminated with the other it will ruin both tubs.
- There must be ventilation, so windows must be open at all times when molding and casting as there will be chemical smells.
- All solutions unused should go in the bin and not down the sink, as this will cause damage to sink and its pipes.
- Any product left over should be scooped out with couch roll and put in the bin.
- Lids should be left on any products that have been used, to prevent any spillage.
- Masks should be worn when molding and casting as again there will be chemicals which will not be good if you are inhaling them for any amount of time.
