Probably poured latex.

Re: Modeling Rubber

Hi Marck. Where does one find this stuff? Hobby shop? Hardware?

How do you extract the rubber from the runner or port? Is there prep (Lube) necessary first, to help extract it later?

Re: Modeling Rubber

I'm not sure where to get it over there

The stuff is really malleable, you just carefully pull it out and it returns to it's cured form.

I'm not sure if it needs prep, I have never poured runner shapes before.
