What is the best material to make molds for concrete product with perfectly square edges? Needs to be rigid & produced based on a master mold made in metal.

I've used many different materials to "form" concrete, but 2Tinker said it best.

More Data Required !

I agree with the others. Are you casting Bunnies? Barber Poles? Bridge Piers? Ya aren't giving us much to work with.

This site should reveal some of the folly you pursue: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Form_liner

You might even pick up some answers... Lots of luck with your project, whatever it is.

" the best material to make molds for concrete product with perfectly square edges" would be silicone rubber.
