-===Preparing the mold===
+===Preparing the mold=== <!--T:24-->
 Plastic molds generally cannot support themselves once they are filled with wet plaster, so you must prepare a support base to set them on. This support base can be as simple as a sealable plastic bag filled with uncooked rice or sand. Squeeze as much air out of the bag as you can, and then lay the bag flat on the work surface. Place the mold on top of it and press it into the support, wiggling it around until the support conforms to the shape of the mold. Try to get the mold as level as possible. Once the mold is in place and well supported, coat the mold with mold spray (see requirement 3).
 ===Mixing the plaster===
@@ Line 44: / Line 46: @@
 Once the plaster heats up, you can remove it from the mold. Do this by gently pulling the edges of the mold away from the cast piece. Work your way around until the mold has been separated all around (it's OK to let the mold snap back into place). Do not overflex the mold or you may crease it. Turn the mold upside down over the support base (the bag of rice) and gently shake it until the piece pops out. It should land gently on the support base. Set the piece aside to allow it to finish curing. For fastest curing, set the piece on a grate so that air may circulate over all surfaces.

 <!-- 3. Know how to remove air bubbles from a poured item. -->
 Air bubbles are caused by the surface tension of the water mixed into the plaster. This surface tension can be eliminated by spraying a mold treatment such as [http://store.plastercrafters.com/aimosp8oz.html Airid] onto the mold before pouring the plaster. The mold treatment will reduce the surface tension and prevent bubbles from forming.

 <!-- 6. When is a sealant applied to a plaster item and why? -->
 Acrylic sealant is sprayed onto a piece after the paint has dried. This will preserve the color and strengthen the surface of the piece. You can select matte sealants or gloss sealants. Matte sealants will seal the item without having much of an effect on the way it looks. Glossy sealants will brighten the colors and make the piece more shiny.

 Be sure to check that the sealant you choose is compatible with the paint you have used. Some combinations can cause the colors to run. If in doubt, paint and seal a piece of scrap first, or apply them to the back or bottom of the piece to test for compatibility.
