Jesmonite AC730 – 1 kg liquid

Jesmonite® AC730 — liquid component

Jesmonite® AC730 is supplied as two components: a water-based acrylic resin liquid and a cement-based mineral powder. This is the liquid variant, to be mixed exclusively with the AC730 base.

AC730 is the most popular micro-cement product in the Jesmonite® range. Generally used outdoors, it is also suitable for interior fittings. A shrinkage-compensated, low-permeability material, it durably withstands all weather exposure conditions (including in the presence of water) and delivers a distinctive, highly detailed surface finish.

Suitable for candle making

Creations made with this material can be used as candle vessels. However, as it is naturally porous, it is essential to apply a suitable protective treatment, such as Jesmonite acrylic varnish, before any use.

We recommend letting your creation dry for at least 48 hours before pouring the wax, to ensure optimal heat resistance.

Before any sale, every vessel intended to hold a candle must undergo burn tests to validate its safety and suitability for the intended use.

This product has not been tested for use in contact with foodstuffs.

Dosage

Ratio: 5 to 1 (5 parts base to 1 part liquid). A Jesmonite calculator is available to make your measurements easier.

Usage tips

• To avoid air bubbles, place your mould on a vibrating plate so they can escape.
• Prepare 5 to 10% more than the theoretical calculation to compensate for losses.
• Work in warm, dry conditions away from direct sunlight; avoid places where solvent-based products are frequently used.
• Make sure the mixing containers are clean, dry and an appropriate size.
