INSTRUCTIONS
Prep Head Form with a thin layer of Vaseline (MR-150 Spray Release) to allow an easy release of Bald Cap skin. Next, apply Bald Cap Material onto the form by either spraying or brushing. Thin layers of up to 6-8 coats should be applied to create a HEAD CAP, allowing 20-30 minutes between coats. Once last coat is applied, allow over night for material to fully cure. When removing, Talc both surfaces, outside and inside, to avoid any sticking.
Tips:
Generally, 6-8 layers will be adequate for the main part of the Cap while reducing the thickness to 1-2 layers for the fine edges.
Store completed Bald Caps on Talc powdered Head Form to retain shape prior to use.
Acetone can be used safely on the skin to dissolve and create fine edges.
