I have a site that has a liquid casting plastic called, Alumilite super liquid casting plastic, they say its easy to use, virtually odorless and will duplicate any part down to the most minute detail. They also have molding clay, release creams, etc., www.miniaturemolds.com or webmolds.com. First take molding clay and make an impression of the original grips, apply releasing cream and pour in casting plastic, wait for the instructed time and then remove your new grips, when the grips have cured you sand the back flat to proper thickness, locate and transfer holes, drill, countersink for screws, mount and enjoy. NOTE: There are many types of polymer plastics on the market, as for this one, you can add filler, it can also be dyed, sanded, drilled, machined or painted.

What is plastic paint medium?

Plastic Paint Medium is a painting technique for plastic artists, which consist in the use of Epoxy Resin (any of a class of resins derived by polymerization from epoxies: used essentially in adhesives, coatings, and castings), mixed with pigments such as dry pigment, oil painting or acrylic paintings, etc, obtaining as a result a very hard, shining and very durable finish, similar to Plexiglas (a thermoplastic polymer of methyl methacrylic that is light in weight). Plastic Paint Medium is very resistant to the corrosive effects of weathering and an excellent blocker against the devastating UV's rays.


What is the carapace made of in arthropodas?

The carapace in arthropods, along with the remainder of the exoskeleton, would be made mostly of a hard long-chain polymer protein called chitin. Crustaceans further harden this through biomineralization with calcium carbonate.


How do you get hard clay to become soft?

Add water. If you can, poke holes in it so the water can really soak. Wrapping it in a plastic bag will also prevent it from hardening so quickly.


What is the difference between melamine and polythene?

Melamine is a hard substance used to give surface hardness to some paints and also for laminating into countertop material. Polythene is a softer plastic used for plastic sheet, etc.

What polymer is a plastic bowling ball made out of?

Usually polyester; some modern balls are based on urethanes instead. Older balls were hard rubber, which is also a polymer but would not be considered "plastic" by most people. There's a more dense "core" in the ball that's made of a composite material, so the ball weighs more than a solid piece of the outside plastic would.

Why polyvinyl chloride plastic is hard and polyethene is soft?

Polymers are interesting. Small changes in polymer structure can yield large results. This is one example of them. the additional steric hindrance and anomeric effects yielded by adding in a chlorine increases across branching which stabilizes the two filaments of the polymer against one another, thereby making the material more hard
