Overview
Casting Concrete Will Never Be The Same! Formulated especially for casting concrete, VytaFlex™ Mold Rubbers are next generation urethanes that feature Smooth-On's V-Polymer™ Technology.
It's the V-Polymer Technology:
- that gives VytaFlex™ rubbers superior physical & performance properties.
- that gives concrete castings a surface finish you're going to love.
- that gives VytaFlex™ rubbers long-term dimensional stability.
- that gives VytaFlex™ molds the ability to render color-accurate castings every time.
"We've been cycling VytaFlex™ molds for over three years now and they show no signs of giving out at all." – Dale Groff, Lancaster Stone, Lancaster, PA
