Guest guest Posted September 20, 2005 Report Share Posted September 20, 2005 Starting out with cold process or hot process soap, you'll probably want to use a box as a mold. These need to be insulated during the first 24-36 hours (some may say more, some may say less :-) or they will get a chalky texture on the edges from cooling to fast. As you get a feel for it, you can move into the fancy molds. Also - no matter how tempting, don't use anything made out of aluminum as a mold! Wood, glass, plastic.... yes. I saw an aluminum baking pan that someone used as a mold once. Looked like it was used as a target for a shotgun.
