From Mould to Masterpiece in 4 Steps.
Press it, dry it, attach it, finish it. Real wood detail, no carving experience needed.
Press
Keep WoodCast soft with a touch of acetone, then press it into every detail of your mould, working into corners and deep carving first.
Dry
Let your casting dry fully, typically 4 to 5 hours, overnight for deeper moulds, then gently flex the mould to release it. No shrinking, no cracking.
Attach
Use wood glue for wood surfaces or a quick-set glue for other materials. Tape in place while it bonds for a seamless, built-in look.
Finish
Need it to curve around a leg or frame? Microwave your cast for 20 seconds to make it bendable. Then carve, sand, stain, paint, or gild, WoodCast takes every finish like real wood.

Woodcast FAQ
Clay shrinks, cracks, and cannot be sanded or carved realistically once dry. WoodCast™ is true wood fiber — it behaves exactly like wood and gives you architectural-quality detail without the fragility or inconsistency of clay.
