Setup

1. Prepare Your Workspace: Choose a clean, flat surface that can be easily cleaned. Cover the surface with newspaper or a protective mat to prevent spills or stains.
2. Gather Materials: Ensure all components listed in the 'What's Included' section are present.

Operating Instructions: Plaster Making Kit

Step 1: Prepare the Plaster

1. Carefully open the plaster powder bag.
2. In a separate mixing container (not included), gradually add water to the plaster powder while stirring. Aim for a smooth, thick consistency, similar to pancake batter. Avoid making it too watery.
3. Mix thoroughly to remove any lumps.

Step 2: Pour into Molds

1. Carefully pour the mixed plaster into the PAW Patrol character molds. Fill each mold completely to the top.
2. Gently tap the mold on your workspace a few times to release any air bubbles and ensure the plaster settles evenly.

Step 3: Drying and Demolding

1. Allow the plaster to dry completely. This can take several hours, depending on humidity and temperature. The plaster will feel hard and dry to the touch when ready.
2. Once dry, carefully flex the mold to release the plaster figures. Be gentle to avoid breaking the delicate parts.

Step 4: Painting the Pendants

2. Allow the paint to dry thoroughly before handling or adding the pendant hangers.

Step 5: Adding Hangers

Maintenance

• Cleaning Tools: Wash the paintbrush thoroughly with water immediately after use to prevent paint from drying on the bristles.
• Storage: Store any unused plaster powder, paints, and stickers in their original packaging in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep finished plaster figures and cards away from moisture to preserve their quality.

Troubleshooting

• Plaster not setting: Ensure the correct water-to-plaster ratio was used. Too much water can prevent proper setting. Allow ample drying time in a well-ventilated area.
• Plaster figures breaking during demolding: Ensure the plaster is completely dry and hard before attempting to remove it from the mold. Flex the mold gently rather than pulling forcefully.
• Stickers not adhering: Ensure the card surface is clean and dry before applying stickers. Press firmly on each sticker to secure it.
