Animatronic and Puppet Skin
Animatronic Skin Rubber
These Tin Based, Translucent Silicone RTV rubbers are intended primarily for puppet skins and highly flexible rubber parts. They are also used as a general purpose, high strength rubber.
Features:
*Excellent physical properties with high tear resistance and flesh skin softness
*Low viscosity for ease of pouring
*Easily paintable with D-3430 SP Silicone Paint
*Flocking Fibers Red, Flesh, Brown, Black , Blue, & White for adding realistic texture and coloring.
*Translucent for easy coloring with Silicone Pigments
*Brush-On Catalyst R-1300TH SP B Clear with 3 Hour Cure Time

Mixing Instructions:
R-1310 A and R-1320 A are processed by adding the curing agent B. The addition of 10% catalyst (by weight) has a pot life of 45 minutes – 1 hour. Silicone B side is clear and two containers can be used to achieve good dispersion. De-airing material is always recommended. After the mold has been removed from the master, it should be left for 24 hours in order to develop its maximum mechanical strength.
Softening Agent:
F-100 Thinner can be used to adjust skin hardness or create a gel like silicone medium for movement. Add F-100 fluid to the Silicone RTV rubber mix. The addition of 10-15% fluid will lower the hardness by 5-10 points
Brush-On:
For thin rubber skins use Brush-On catalyst R-1300TH –SP B at 10%. Gel—20minutes Cure—3 hours
To repair any voids or rips use RTV 4500, which can be pigmented to desired color.
