Hard enough to demould in 1–2 hours. Fully cured and paint-ready at 24 hours.

Keep the dry powder away from faces (it's dusty), and never set a hand or fingers inside a mould: plaster gets warm as it sets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat's the right water-to-plaster ratio?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1 part water to 2 parts plaster by volume is the standard. For thicker, harder pours use less water; for thin pours use slightly more. Add plaster to water (not the other way around).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCan you paint plaster of paris?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, once fully cured at 24 hours. Acrylic, watercolour and poster paints all work well. For best adhesion, seal the surface first with a coat of diluted PVA or acrylic medium, then paint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhy are the edges of my cast going yellow?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's usually moisture drying out through the thin edges and carrying marks to the surface, or something from the mould or mixing container. Use clean water and a clean container, let pieces dry fully in a warm, airy spot (thick pieces can take a few days), then seal with a coat of white gesso or diluted PVA before painting. Paint covers any light marks once it's sealed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eHow do you store leftover plaster powder?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKeep the bag sealed in a dry place.
