Silputty-BR (Clone) Skin Safe, Brush-On, Fast Curing, Highly Tear Resistant, Platinum Silicone RTV designed to produce semi-durable, reusable molds quickly. This system’s easy 1:1 mix and forensic detail capabilities prove well in producing molds used for Life Casting**Avoid using Tin RTV (Condensation Cure), Sulfer Clay, and Latex gloves--Please check Addition Cure Tech sheet for other inhibiting (contaminating) materials.

Mixing Instructions:

These products are designed to be mixed in the ratio of 1 part by weight of cross-linker to 1 part by weight of base. Visual estimation of proportions is usually sufficient. Measure out the desired quantities of respective components and mix until color is uniform. Be careful not to mix more than can be applied in five minutes. Immediately after mixing brush or trowel material onto desired surface. Take care to avoid air entrapment. Light air pressure from hair dryer may be used to remove surface bubbles. Your 1st print coat can be mixed with F-100 silicone thinning agent @ 5-10% for high detail reproduction. Apply next layer within 10 minutes and continue building layers until desired thickness is achieved—1/4 inch. Summer or winter temperatures will affect the cure rate. Heat from hair dryer can be used to accelerate cure of RTV. Requirement for cure are dependent on the particular application and should be determined by the user. **Use Tearless Baby Shampoo as a release agent (skin safe) around hairy areas (i.e. eye brows, eye lashes) when using Silputty BR as a body mold material.  Use Plaster Bandages to build Mother-mold support shell.
