Brushable Silicone for making fast brush-on molds
Use our specialized thickening additive, you can make T-Flow, T-Pro silicone easy to become a brushable silicone.
Features
- Brushable application
- High tear strength
- High elasticity, for easy removal of, complex replica parts
- Less shrinkage
- Outstanding release properties
Typical Uses & Casting Materials
These rubbers are commonly used in Sculpture, Architectural Reproduction & Restoration applications.
It is used to make rubber molds that can be used to cast polyurethanes, epoxy’s, polyester’s, cement, concrete, soap, wax, plaster, etc..
Instruction
- Stir Part A well before use, shake Part B catalyst container well before use.
- Weigh 100 Part A to 2~3 Part B using an accurate scale and a clean mixing container.
- Vigorously mix and scrape walls of the container, continue mixing until uniform.
- Place the mixture in a vacuum chamber & degass. If without a chamber, Pour the mixture 2-3 inches above the pattern in a thin stream.
- Allow the silicone to cure 2-4 hours and demold with care.
Important tips
- Before use, read the operation manual, please.
- Before large production, a small-scale test is recommended.
- Mixing ratio must be accurate, recommend mixing ratio is A:B=100:2~3(by weight), If curing too fast, please reduce the ratio of catalyst to 1% or less, then Stir Part A and Part B completely.
- Use a vacuum to de-gas this product before use under pressure. Vacuum silicone for 2-3 minutes
- This product has a limited shelf life. Use it as soon as possible after opening.
- Always tightly reseal containers after use. Air, moisture or other contamination causes a reduction in reactivity over time.
Package
Storage & shelf-life
12 months in unopened containers when properly stored.
Super-Silicon cannot guarantee the shelf life of opened or repackaged units.
Recommended storage temperature range: 10°C – 25°C. SuperSilicon™ should be stored in closed containers out of direct sunlight and away from direct sources of heat. Always tightly reseal containers after use. Air, moisture or other contamination causes a reduction in reactivity over time.

Mold Making Materials COMPARISON
Tin cure silicone VS. Platinum cure silicone
Type |
Advantages |
Disadvantages |
Casting materials |
---|---|---|---|
Tin-Cured Silicone
|
High strength, Cost-effective
|
Shrinks on cure (~0.3%), Cured rubber has limited storage life, Not food-grade
|
Most materials, especially resins, foams, plaster, wax, concrete etc.
|
Platinum-Cured Silicone
|
No shrink on cure, Cured rubber has long storage life, Excellent chemical resistance, Food-grade skin safe, 1:1 simple mix
|
Cure inhibited by some materials, a slight expensive than tin cure silicone
|
Most materials, especially resins, foams, plaster, wax, concrete etc. and some low-melt metals and food grade products mould.
