Their website is being pounded right now but it's at:

plastimake.com

I wonder how it would work for push molds? then you could shove more platimake into the push mold….

There's actually a cameo push mold on the second page of examples. Not too shabby. Might give it a go. When you don't need the mold anymore…throw it in water…and boom! Make another mold.

Looks like it would be pretty useful material for many things, but the availability seems limited. For push molds, it would depend on how pliable the plastimake is so that it wouldn't deform the mold (if the mold was made from something other than a hard material like silicone, etc.).

Great for scratchbuilders, I suspect.

After watching the video I clicked around some other links on Youtube and ran across this company in the UK that sells the same type of material
