elite double 22

[jobu pete]

I just started using elite double 22 fast. The lab I formally worked at taught us to place in a pressure pot to cure.
They said that you then had to wait for an hour before you could pour model. I have trued contacting Zermach, but they never respond.
Any advice?
Unfortunately no one ever read instructions at that lab, so they were usually wrong.
Thanks

I've never used it but I would follow the instructions that came with it.

We've been using Elite Double 22 for a long time. I've never used it under vacuum before or waited an hour before pouring a model. In a rush, I'll pull it at a half hour. It's forgivable stuff... just make sure to mix it well at a 1:1 ratio or you will have uncured spots.
