Mesa Precast used custom mold making technology to create modular fiber glass molds …

 

The GFRC casting process is carried out in three steps –

 

  1. Applying the face mix for smooth finish,
  2. Spraying and packing the spray mix with fibers over three iterations, and
  3. Thickening the edges.
