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.
Solaris™
Solaris™ is a low viscosity, clear and colorless liquid platinum cure silicone rubber compound designed for use in protecting of electronic components and other assemblies. It will protect components against shock, vibration, moisture, ozone, dust, chemicals and other environmental hazards.
