Parts A and B are mixed 1:1 by weight or volume, pot life is about 2.5 minutes and rubber cures in about 5 minutes at room temperature with negligible shrinkage. Low viscosity ensures easy mixing and pouring. Rubber cures without \"tacky\" surface, is very soft, very strong and very \"stretchy, stretching many times its original size. \u003cstrong\u003eEcoFlex™ 00-35 FAST\u003c\/strong\u003e is off-white translucent and can be color pigmented using \u003cstrong\u003eSilc Pig™\u003c\/strong\u003e silicone color pigments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shoplightspeed.com\/shops\/606431\/files\/50868754\/ecoflex0035specs.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"406\" height=\"703\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFeatures\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCertified Skin Safe\u003c\/strong\u003e - Material is skin safe and certified by an independent laboratory.

Wear safety glasses, long sleeves and rubber gloves to minimize contamination risk. Wear vinyl gloves only. Latex gloves will inhibit the cure of the rubber.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStore and use material at room temperature (73°F\/23°C).\u003c\/strong\u003e Warmer temperatures will drastically reduce working time and cure time. Storing material at warmer temperatures will also reduce the usable shelf life of unused material. These products have a limited shelf life and should be used as soon as possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCure Inhibition\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e – Addition-cure silicone rubber may be inhibited by certain contaminants in or on the pattern to be molded resulting in tackiness at the pattern interface or a total lack of cure throughout the mold. Latex, tin-cure silicone, sulfur clays, certain wood surfaces, newly cast polyester, epoxy or urethane rubber may cause inhibition. If compatibility between the rubber and the surface is a concern, a small-scale test is recommended. Apply a small amount of rubber onto a non-critical area of the pattern. Inhibition has occurred if the rubber is gummy or uncured after the recommended cure time has passed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBecause no two applications are quite the same, a small test application to determine suitability for your project is recommended if performance of this material is in question.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo prevent inhibition, one or more coatings of a clear acrylic lacquer applied to the model surface is usually effective. Allow any sealer to thoroughly dry before applying rubber. Note: Even with a sealer, platinum silicones will not work with modeling clays containing heavy amounts of sulfur. Do a small scale test for compatibility before using on your project.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eApplying A Release Agent\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e - Although not usually necessary, a release agent will make demolding easier when pouring into or over most surfaces. \u003cstrong\u003eEase Release™ 200\u003c\/strong\u003e is a proven release agent for use with silicone rubber.

It washes off with soap and water. It is highly concentrated, so a little goes a long way. To use, wash intended body section with soap and water and dry thoroughly. Liberally apply \u003cstrong\u003eBody Double™ Release Cream\u003c\/strong\u003e to all skin surfaces (bare and hair covered) that will contact mold rubber.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTake special care to aggressively massage and work the cream into and over body hair.\u003c\/strong\u003e Body hair not thoroughly coated with release cream will become encapsulated and stuck in rubber which will be difficult \u0026amp; painful to remove\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf there is any question about the effectiveness of a sealer\/release agent combination, a small-scale test should be made on an identical surface for trial.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eMEASURING \u0026amp; MIXING -\u003c\/em\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003eBefore you begin, pre-mix Part B thoroughly. After dispensing required amounts of Parts A and B into mixing container (1A:1B by volume or weight), mix thoroughly for 90 seconds making sure that you scrape the sides and bottom of the mixing container several times. This material sets up quickly - do not delay between mixing and pouring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePOURING - \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003eFor best results, pour your mixture in a single spot at the lowest point of the containment field. If making a mold, let the rubber seek its level up and over the model. \u003cstrong\u003eA uniform flow will help minimize entrapped air\u003c\/strong\u003e. The liquid rubber should level off at least 1\/2” (1.3 cm) over the highest point of the model surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCURING \/ POST CURING -\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e Allow rubber to cure as prescribed at room temperature (73°F\/23°C) before demolding. Do not cure rubber where temperature is less than 65°F\/18°C. \u003cstrong\u003eOptional:\u003c\/strong\u003e Post curing the mold will aid in quickly attaining maximum physical and performance properties. After curing at room temperature, expose the rubber to 176°F\/80°C for 2 hours and 212°F\/100°C for one hour. Allow mold to cool to room temperature before using. \u003cstrong\u003eImportant; \u003c\/strong\u003eRubber will yellow over time naturally. Heating the rubber will cause the rubber to yellow more quickly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThinning Ecoflex™ 00-35 FAST\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e - Smooth-On’s \u003cstrong\u003eSilicone Thinner™\u003c\/strong\u003e will lower the viscosity of \u003cstrong\u003eEcoflex™ 00-35 FAST \u003c\/strong\u003efor easier pouring and vacuum degassing. A disadvantage is that ultimate tear and tensile are reduced in proportion to the amount of \u003cstrong\u003eSilicone Thinner™\u003c\/strong\u003e added. It is not recommended to exceed 10% by weight of total system (A+B).
