> Capture impression in snow
> Casting snow impressions with Snow Print Plaster
Even an impression made in slush can give a good casting
Sift a thin layer of dry Snow Print Plaster onto the impression
Add water to the plaster bucket and stir until it thickens (45-60 seconds). Pour plaster onto the impression.
In cold weather (-10C° or colder), cover the plaster with a newspaper. Let sit for 8-10 minutes, then lift the casting.
> Case Study
We are comparing a suspected shoe to a casting of a snow impression
The casting was made from a week old impression, at -15C°
We see that there are many matching details in the shoe sole and the casting.
> Brushing with Snow Print Powder
We can also brush snow impressions to make the details visible for photography. Snow Print Powder works well with dry and wet snow, and can be used before casting the impression.
