Stage 4:
The back of the rose is then ruled of , Smoothing occurs against the edge of the mould and in this way the finished rose has a flat back making it easier to fix in place. The middle is most times left unfilled to keep the weight of the rose down

The plaster rose is left to dry for around 30 minutes and when the plaster has set, and cooled the rubber is gently peeled to encourage the casting to separate from the mould. The surface is checked for major imperfections and provided there are none it is stored to dry and the mould is free for more castings
