Sounds like it's the way to make it bigger?
But then again, are u serious? Microwave won't damage the sculpt or make it explode?![]()
Thanks for the help. Found the videos.
Hydrospan 100 to make it bigger:

Hydrospan 400 to make it smaller:

Looks awesome.
Still wondering if there is any other way? Not sure if I can get the solutions here in my country.
Any other fool proof method?
I honestly hoping that the microwave method works for expansion, but apparently not![]()
Less expensive way: put about 10 per cent of WhitevSpirit in your Mold mix. When it's dry, make a cast everyday until you have the correct size ( when the white spirit evaporates, little by little it contracts the mold, making the cast slightly smaller every time. In the case of a very large head, you may have to make several molds, using the smaller head you,ve achieved as the mold only contracts up to a certain point)
I believe there is a product out there called reduce it. You will need to make a mold of the larger head and use the reduce it in that mold. The head will reduce in size after molded.
Here you see head I schrunk using Hydrospan 400
You see that is Slowly shrinks. Both smaller heads were cast from the same big molds a day or so apart :
