Mask Makers web into meditation

Jan 26, 2009   

Are you aware of the heat activated products Fosshape and Wonderflex as potential mask making materials? I just wanted to remind folks about the heat activated materials Fosshape and Wonderflex.

Fosshape looks like a soft white felt, but when exposed to heat and pressure, it shrinks in and becomes stiff/rigid and can remain breathable as well. Dyeable and paintable plus very light weight. Available in 2 weights and comes by the yard at 45" wide.

Wonderflex is a thermoplastic and is also heat activated. It's available by the 43"x55" sheet and approx 1/16" thick. Activate in real hot water or use an industrial hot air gun and it becomes very pliable as well as activates it own built in adhesive so you can layer it up or stick it to itself. You can also re-activate by re-heating over and over until you get the shape or form desired. It also works well with most paints or artisan coatings.

You can purchase from www.dazian.com or email me at b.jeffrey@comcast.net and I'll send you free swatches to play with.
