Yes , there are actually two part resis that remain somewhat soft, almost like hard foam rubber.

Bodies require a more complex mold however the methods and materials are the same

Re: Resin Casting Part II Making the part

Very cool, awsome tutorial,
I would love to do this, so i can replicate so many cars.
But just don't have the money/place/time to do this.

Re: Resin Casting Part II Making the part

sorry for the threadbump i haven't seen any answer to this yet and this seems to be the best thread to ask it.

would it be possible to make a negative of the part that you're casting? example, use a left hand as master and as end result, the right hand is made?

A negative is quite different to a mirror image or the symmetrical opposite of the part.

To answer your question, if a part is handed (LH is the opposite of the RH), there is no way I know of to make both parts from one, in your case, LH master.

If you're referring to a chrome finish, no there is not. This is why chrome paints and chrome plating exists.

In future, please don't revive old threads for questions such as this.
