Hello, I tested out mixing acetone and silicone together to see if I would be able to make molds out of it. I saw this idea over on Timber Ridge Gifts Channel.

I mixed type1 and type2 silicones with acetone, there are no measurements yet but I have noticed that the more acetone you add that is greater then the amount of silicone, the mold is more likely to come out tacky, full of bubbles, or just not set. But it is possible to make a silicone mold by mixing acetone and silicone together.
Ill add some measurements here when I find a good ratio of the two mixed together.
Anyways, I tested to see how polymer clay and chalk would react to the mold.
The type1 silicone mixed with an amount of acetone greater than the amount of silicone cured but had to many bubbles in it and was tearing along the bubbles like connect the dots.
The Chalk held up great, where as the polymer clay started to crumble and fall apart, but the mold was able to capture the shape of both.
Type2 Silicon I had mixed with an amount of acetone less then the amount of silicone. It was not quite as liquid but it was the best out of the three mixes. There where little to none bubbles and the chalk and polymer clay held up beautifully, neither crumbled.
Type2 Silicone mixed with more acetone then the amount of silicone never cured and was goo like.
