Smooth-On hello sir
Acrylic nail powder & liquid works really well with this remolding method & hardens in about 2 minutes, I use a hot water softened mould medium to get the initial shape,and it can be reused many times over
Acrylic nail powder and liquid? What kind of liquid? And WHERE do I get this "hot water softened mould medium"?
Funnystuffcollector Oyumaru is what you have to find,it comes in blocks/sticks,I bought 2 packs of 6 as they are small,& yes.... acrylic nail powder & liquid (I use the clear powder& liquid) it makes perfect copies when placed in the moulded shape & are dry enough to use in 5 minutes,easily available on EBay
Do you mean it is "acrylic liquid?" Thanks for your reply. Am I essentially buying a nail repair kit?
Funnystuffcollector Hi,you need to buy / look for acrylic powder EzFlow 120 ml (it generally comes from China,if your looking for best price) & the liquid (look for the brand name keystone) these 2 together will give you an easy mix that will harden solidly within 5 minutes, but takes a bit of practice,you can layer it for bigger sections/parts into the mould you have formed,the acrylic powder/liquid method gives you a perfectly shaped replica of whatever you want,it just takes a little practice & you need a chunky but soft brush to take up the liquid& powder,search UA-cam videos for nail acrylic tutorials,this is a great way to use this medium which I've never really seen used any other way but for nails,I've used it to restore & repair lots of different things & have been constantly delighted at the results,you can pretty much copy anything if you are careful,I spray a little oil into the mould,as little as possible,which makes sure it releases perfectly

Very helpful. Great soundtrack. Is that the Mermen?
What glue do you recommend to attach, and inject into loose and cracked pieces of gesso frame?. Thank you.
Oh man! What were the product names? I am relieved I found this product, I thought my antique-victorian framed mirror was done for!!
where do you get these supplies, going to ck your website too.
Actually needing to do just this. Is this still the recommended way to go about it, materials wise and stuff? If not, do you guys have an updated video?
Many people are now using our Equinox platinum cure putty for this application: www.smooth-on.com/tutorials/versatile-fast-mold-putty-restore-antique-picture-frame/
Smooth-on looks like a great product for the purpose, how would you suggest stabilizing the rest of the frame to stop it crumbling?

For a wood frame, you can use a wood hardener. I've used PC-Petrifier for similar applications (old, crumbling wood in an antique door).
Thanks for the video. Very informative. I need some advice. I just purchased a beautiful frame at an antique shop. At first i thought the nicks and scratches gave it character but once i brought it home i noticed that the frame needs some repairing. Is there a way for me to send you a picture for your input in how to tackle the job?
Absolutely. Use the Tech Support link on our website.
Can this product be used to make a two-part mold to create a replacement for a part? I have a wrought iron railing where one of the decorative pieces is broken. I'm wondering if I could use this to make a mold from one of the matching unbroken sections, then cast a replacement in epoxy. I think I would need to create a two-part mold in order to capture the full shape while also being able to remove the mold.
Certainly, as long as Ease Release 200 is used on the first half, to keep the silicone of the second half from bonding.
Amazing restoration. But all I need is one very small piece about 1/8" total for a full wax picture which was damaged in transport to me. Any thoughts on what I might use?

What is the music from 20 Seconds through 1 minute ? Thanks
merseybeat1963 , Sounds like the beginning of Jefferson Starship's Miracles. If you remember this question from a year ago.
You missed a spot...
This would be great it if didn't cost over $50 to replace a little piece of missing frame!
Linda Booska nahhhh girl, you need some cheap putty from hobby lobby
And “Durham’s rock hard mixing powder”
This is how most experienced antique dealers replace missing bakelight knobs and such...works for gessoed frames as well “pretending that one is worth working on”
A little model paint for a color match and PRESTO, you did what these guys did for under $17.00 give or take...
Plus nothing so dangerous that you have to wear gloves 😒
better than buying a new frame!
Shouldn't you sprinkle talkum powder on the frame where you want to make the mold?
Not sure why you would do that, silicone is self releasing.
Recommend gloves? Even a mask?
Gloves are required, but a mask is optional.
Get a little creative here. When you see your doctor the next time, swipe a few gloves. They won't miss them and believe me, you are paying plenty for them. Also, if you visit your local Lowe's or Home Depot on a regular basis, the next time you go ask one of the clerks you know for a painter's mask. Life is not that hard if you don't make it so.
Change the frame cost u nothing 😉
