Casting wrap 3m scotch plus
Good for fixing broken things that you can wrap it around. I fixed a cane. Wear protective gloves latex or rubber. It is messy and sticky to work with. I did not wet it at first. Did first wrap and went over that with second wrap the sprayed water on it and smoothed it out. Let sit and it will cure.. Helps to watch Youtube video.

Dip in water for 3 seconds squeeze out excess water and apply! DON'T STRETCH - LAY IN PLACE!
This product is meant to be applied immediately after getting wet. It is not meant to be stretched into place but laid into place. It will start to harden within about 2 minutes. Very helpful to form it with your hands this means after you have wrapped it on gently press your hands over the entire wrap to press it into place. Very helpful to watch a couple of YouTube videos. Know what you are going to do before you start. Once you get it wet it will activate and what ever shape you have it in, in the next couple of minutes is what it will be. DO NOT OVER SOAK IT! PS. Use cool water not cold or hot the chemical reaction will make it feel warm.

Use it immediately after opening
I'm glad I bought 2. The first one we opened and put it straight in water while we prepped. After about 3 minutes of prep we started to wrap and it was sticky and difficult to pull off the roll. The roll set before we were done wrapping.We decided to use the other one immediately upon opening. It is already damp inside the package and begins to garden once air touches it. Wrapping went smoothly and we didn't mess with placing it in water at all. About 4 minutes in it started getting sticky. When it's sticky is when you know it's beginning to set. It needs to be in its final position about 6 minutes after opening because it starts to garden at that time.It gets pretty warm for about 20 minutes and then is completely set and hard as a rock. You definitely need a dremel tool to remove it. Or go to a local urgent care to let them remove it.

Makes a durable cast
It's really is doing material. Great casting material. Once you wrap it around you can't take the rap and try to re rap with it. Once it's got out in place you need to leave it they for a strong hold. It's hard to remove so have a pliers to grab should with so you can remove the cast. Good dog for a home made cast.

Worthless waste for money and ruined
This product was used step by step to make a cast for a 4ft leg on my kiddos doll. I followed step by step instructions. The first roll was submitted in water for three minutes. Excess squeeze out and it wuke not unroll. I tried to soak it again for a few more minutes and still didn't work. Opened the second roll follow the same procedure but left it in the water for 2 minutes.. still hard as rock just like whe. I put in to begin with. Rock hard after and extra 2 minutes.. no I have a child with disabilities having a melt down all day bc I can't fix her sleeping buxdy... do not waste your money

Amazing ... but ... WEAR DISPOSABLE GLOVES
So, this comes in a foil pouch, that is completely sealed. When you open it, WEAR GLOVES. I didn't. - more on that later.The roll is a mesh-like material that is black, and somewhat sticky. I had a cross-piece of a tent made out of aluminum, that had broke. Rather than throw the 12 ft x 12 ft pavilion way, I opted to try to fix it.I used JB Weld metal composite epoxy to tack the pieces together, and let it cure. The next day, I tacked down a heavy copper wire on top to act as a "splint".Then, I wrapped the Fiberglass Casting tape over the entire piece, and when it was wrapped - I simply submerged the entire cross-piece in a bucket of water for ~10-15 seconds and set it aside to cure and dry. The result is amazing, this stuff sets up "rock hard".Wear gloves, because if you don't; you will have your hands coated with a sticky substance that is immune to dish-washing soap, Goop cleaner, Acetone, lava soap, fingernail remover and raw gasoline. This stuff will make your hands sticky and black - and this stuff will simply have to wear off over the next week or so. A set of Nitrite Gloves would have been the wise thing to do - in retrospect.
