This could be of use to scratchers or anyone who wants to replicate parts of their masterpieces.

Hello,
you can get it from Amazon, too.
Just search for Oyumaru (the original name). Some of my german Modelling buddies use it frequently and are very happy with the result.

Have to try that out! I hate making silicone moulds and hardly ever got a good result using liquid resin without many airbubbles. Looks very promising, thanks for sharing!

Neat stuff! I also learned some things on another video here about "Washes" and panel accents. Thanks for posting this Thumbs Up.
Cheers,

Identity of this material. This is normally used to protect the edges of cutting tools such as large drill bits, routers, and end mills. It is designed to be easily be stripped off. Evanscoatings.com sells a few varieties of this material for $3 USD per pound. They have translucent versions in assorted colors including blue. I do not know which stock number matches the melting temperature and durometer of Blue Stuff. Some easy experimentation could determine that if they sell a sample pack.

I remember last year someone posted about instant
Mold which seems to be the same stuff basically.
