If I were going to use it in a mold I think I would spray the mold with Pam cooking spray first so it would be easy to break loose after it setts up. ![]() I think I could paint some pollyuathane over it and have it exactly like glazed tile. I might even try some 1 inch by 1 inch tile. That is what gave me the idea to make paving stones with it. After it setts up you can pop it fight out of the bottom of the cup and have a perfect round flat stone (well it is a mirror imange of the cup's bottom. When I use it I allways have some levt in the plastic cup. Sure would help making bricks/stones/blocks a lot cheaper. Kevin, you've got me wondering if this would work with the brick/stone stencils mentioned in another thread. Thank You all for your advise and knowledge I live in fear of useing some poroduct that should'nt be used on dollhouses and "anybody" with a brain knows better-LOL I am so new, I just want to check for screams of NOOOOOOOO before I proceed to far.
