Begin by dispensing Dragon Skin® FX-Pro® part A into a measuring cup. Then dispense an equal amount of Dragon Skin® FX-Pro® part B into a measuring cup. Add a small amount of Silc Pig® Flesh Tone pigment to the Dragon Skin® FX-Pro® part B. Thoroughly pre-mix the Silc Pig into the part B.

Now that the Dragon Skin FX Pro® is pre-mixed, you can pour part A into a mixing cup. Then add the pigmented Dragon Skin® FX-Pro® part B is added to the part A and mix the silicone thoroughly. After 1 minute of mixing, pour the material into a new cup (double mix and pour technique). Mix the material again using a new stick. This helps ensure a complete mix.

Pour the mixed Dragon Skin® FX-Pro® as a thin stream into the resin mold. No release is necessary. Scrape away any excess silicone by using a wooden stick. Leave the material to cure for 40 minutes.
