How to use in 4 simple steps

1. Prepare your armature or base surface with a light coating of oil, soap, or spray release to prevent sticking, then assemble your frame with wire, foam, or cardboard.
2. Dip plaster cloth strips into clean water for a few seconds until pliable, then wrap evenly around the form, smoothing as you go.
3. Apply successive layers to build thickness and strengthen the shell; let each layer set before adding the next.
4. Allow complete drying, then sand smooth and finish with primer, paint, or sealant.
