Silicone Putty

What is Putty silicone?

This is a two shares in RTV silicone rubber, non-toxic materials with the viscosity of the cement for the production of simple, yet accurate way. The module can withstand temperatures up to 315 ° C

This tire requires no molds or containers, liquid silicone rubber RTV or our needs. They simply mix equal parts of Part A and Part B of the same amount for less time and skill in preparing the rubber ready to be necessaryApplication.

In a nutshell, is the quickest and easiest way to create a reusable form that is flexible and precise.

Security

E 'safe to use and does not emit toxic fumes. Those who are allergic to silicone should still take all necessary security measures described. For many people, but there is no need for gloves.

Silicone putty is in two forms. A cement for general use and what is done with foodSafety in mind that used in the manufacture of chocolate and food materials.

Recommended storage temperature

In a cold, dark storage room with the lid closed. When the glue is not exposed to air will last for more than a year.

Mix

Part A and Part B of the silicone is to mix different colors so that a uniform and well. Do not worry about weighing all sides. Only best estimationa ball of similar size of each part. Mix together with fingers until color is uniform and without streaks. It is recommended to take only a minute or less do so because the silicone begins to cure immediately after mixing.

How to use the silicone sealant

Once the silicone is mixed around the object and has gone further to create that impression. Let set for 5 to 10 minutes. When you press the putty on the model ofPressing the center of the moving object and the outside air is not trapped in the impression.

silicone sealant easily trapped air can not increase its viscosity bubble, how it works so be careful with liquid silicone.

A release agent is not necessary, because silicone and other objects are not, however, a difficulty that is trapped in wood fibers and are difficult to remove. If the cement is pushed against a vertical surface, it can befall if not supported by the simple release properties of mastic.

Unlike a form of silicon from a liquid without using a level to facilitate casting surface finish. One way to avoid this is, two strips of wood on the bottom of the glue that sticks to act as the legs on the module.

Once set, the silicone has allowed you to throw the rest of the form to make this strip to a level of form.

Since silicone begins to createin less than three minutes after you've finished kneading, you must work quickly. Expand the glue out, give at least 1 inch on all sides of the object on a flat surface to form the opening.

Since silicone-like areas of each thin silicone mold can be completed by adding additional cement to repair.

What can the forms be used?

Putty silicone molds can be used a kiln at high temperatures such as those.Therefore, polymer clay can be cured in the molds. All types of resin and plaster are used. Chocolates and candies can be formed in silicone putty molds in food safety.
