I dont think so mate, it comes with a rubber mold maker that you make plyable by putting it in boiling water but thats about all.
The stuff itself is a 2 part plastic sort of thing, its powder with a liquid that you add to it, it comes with an instructional video CD and everything, only costs about $30 for a basic kit too, comes highly recommended from the other guys but I havent had a chance to use it properly yet, ill post results.

OK I used this PLastex stuff extensively today, I repaired a fully smashed up pair of ducktails, I still have a little work left with minor cracks on other panels.
This stuff is highly recommended, it works a treat, I even managed to make up sections where there were wedges of plastic missing and it all hangs together real tight.
If anyone wants ill post some pics of what I did with it.
