Product Description
Psycho Paint™
Psycho Paint™ is a versatile and easy to use platinum silicone paint base developed to help special effects and prosthetic artisans, doll makers, etc. easily create painted-on color effects for their platinum silicone creations. It is a two component translucent clear platinum-cure silicone that is used to make a base for color pigmenting. Once the desired color is attained, Psycho Paint™ is thinned with a solvent. Thin layers of paint can then be applied to a model’s surface (made of Dragon Skin™, Ecoflex™ or other platinum silicone) using an airbrush. It can also be applied by brushing.
Simpact™ 80A-II
Simpact™ Series urethanes are low odor, fast-setting urethane elastomers which offer very high tear strength, impact resistance and wear resistance. Simpact™ urethanes are phthalate free, mercury free and MOCA free. Simpact™ urethanes pour easily. Simpact™ urethanes have fast handling times, allowing them to be demolded quickly. Full cure time is 48 hours at room temperature.
Cured rubber has exceptional performance characteristics and dimensional stability. Simpact™ urethanes can be colored with SO-Strong™, UVO™ or Ignite™ colorants. Simpact™ urethanes are suitable for making impact resistant props, dimensionally stable prototypes and rubber mechanical parts. Simpact™ 80A-II offers exceptional UV resistance and can be combined with URE-FIL™ 13 to create high strength simulated vines, branches, etc. for zoos and other themed environments. See separate Vine Making bulletin for instructions.
