Kryolan SILICONE MF, 550g - art.62700 / impression silicone

Kryolan Silicone MF is a two-component impression silicone that allows for the most realistic and accurate impressions to be taken from the mold. A significant advantage over plaster is that the material does not change or shrink after curing. The silicone captures the original shapes and lines even more lifelike. Its excellent adhesion means it can envelop hair and fur so well that it may pull them out during removal, which can be painful even if those areas were previously moisturized. To ensure a smoother process, it is advisable to cover the hair with a protective film. If someone is inexperienced with taking impressions, it may not succeed on the first attempt, as the silicone cannot be corrected once it has cured. The application of silicone is more pleasant than that of plaster or alginate. Before starting the impression, apply a thin layer of a greasy cream (e.g., make-up remover) to the face.

If you have prepared less material than needed for the impression, you can easily make more to continue working (which is not possible with alginate or plaster).

Silicone MF is intended for direct application on the skin and enables taking outstanding, extremely accurate impressions from faces and other parts of the body. Before taking the impression, ensure that the hair is covered. Scalp hair should be covered with a bald cap, and body hair should be removed if necessary. Generously cover eyebrows with make-up remover and protect eyelashes with enough plastic film or use generous amounts of make-up remover. For taking a facial impression, prepare 100 g of the 2-component material by mixing it in a disposable cup. Then, use a disposable brush to apply the material with upward strokes. Repeat this procedure twice until the required thickness of the impression is reached. If the consistency of the material is too thin for the required procedure, thicken Silicone MF by adding Kryosil. The next step is to reinforce the silicone impression with Plaster Bandages. After the Silicone MF has hardened sufficiently, carefully remove the impression from the model. Silicone MF is a very rugged material and can be used many times to produce plaster positives.
