Product pretty much worked as advertised. My goal was to replace a cracked refractory vertical wall casting for an existing built-in fireplace. Created wood forms, sealed them with two coats of polyurethane, used caster oil as a mold release and cast the parts. I kept the part covered with a damp towel to ensure a proper cure and waited a week before removing the part. My mold had screw-on side pieces, so after removing them, I had no trouble releasing the rest of the part. If there was a negative, my finished casting has small air pockets on the finish-side, which I filled using a slurry mix of Rutland cement, rubbing it into the open pores.....seemed to work okay. To drive off any residual water after from the casting, I baked the thing in my home oven set at first 220 F, then after an hour, cranked it up to 400F for an hour. I've had a fire in the fireplace and all seems to be okay.
