Review: Very Good Product and Reliable - I am ordering this product again, as a beginner I have made expensive mistakes with this product but other than the price, it is an amazing product. I made hand casts and on the 3rd try I got it perfect. I had enough product for 3 hand casts. The cast is virtually indestructible, and flexible. You can tell its high quality material. I've used alginate and you have to get the water mix ratio exact and I never had too much success with it, if you are looking to create a mold use this product. Review: Research is worth its weight in gold. - This stuff definitely works as intended! Despite some of the negative reviews here, the stuff works like they say. I always assume that it's people that didn't do the research enough and just jumped into the project blind. You want to do it in small batches and not mix up the full pint right away. You have 5 minutes from the time that you put two the a and the B together to stir it and put it on the face. It will start to set up after that and it'll be really hard to move around. One thing I found tonight while doing making this mold is that I shouldn't have been talking. Because parts lifted up off of my skin making the next layer not adhere seamlessly. Simple mistake to fix next time. I noticed that the blue material was a lot thicker than the yellow, but when mixed together it was like a a melty frosting texture. One thing I thought was weird that the blue material was in the yellow container and the yellow material was in the blue container. Not a big deal. I just thought it was kind of funny. I'd say with all the batches and the plaster bandages all in all it took us about an hour with just one person applying the silicone and plaster bandages to me. Though it did not turn out 100% perfect. I am 100% happy with the result considering it's the first attempt, and definitely put some new notes in my notebook for the next time. If you do your research and have a plan before you start so that there's no lag time. It'll get done real quick. I will be purchasing this again. ## Features - Mix Ratio - 1:1 by weight or volume - Hardness -25A - Pot Life - 6 minutes - Demold - 25 minutes ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00ICN80AE | | Best Sellers Rank | #42,257 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ( See Top 100 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ) #408 in Sculpture Molding & Casting Products | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 4.2 out of 5 stars (235) | | Date First Available | February 10, 2014 | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item Weight | 2.09 pounds | | Item model number | BDSKit | | Manufacturer | Smooth-On, Inc. | | Product Dimensions | 8 x 6 x 3 inches | ## Images ![Body Double Silk Lifecasting Silicone - Pint Unit - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/710ssR1DERL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Will I get a combined shipping rate if I order 2 or 3 of this product? Also, if I order this today, how soon would it be shipped out of your location?** A: Dear Jaclyn,I do not know where you are located in order to tell you how long delivery will take. I can tell you we try our best to ship the same day but that all depends on when we receive the order.I believe Amazon will combine the products and ship according to weight.I hope this information is helpful. If not, please don't hesitate to contact me.Kindest Regards,Dawn **Q: is there something special I should put on my hair or edges where there is hair or should I use a bald cap and Vaseline on edges?** A: You should use a bald cap with this material. **Q: how much coverage does this pint unit cover (i.e., whole head and neck)?** A: Size depends of course but for an average size head and neck it is pretty close. It will be very thin. If you want to be sure of coverage and durability to remove ide suggest 2. **Q: Can an impression of the sole of my foot be made in the silicone then trim the molded silicone down to make an orthotic for high arches?** A: Yes this product is safe for the skin and you would painted on but the best way that I know how to make an impression is to use alginate and then you would put ultracal 30 or hydrocal and then clean the impression with a rasp. then you would take the mold put it upside down in clay build a wall up against the mold height would be as thick as uou want it for silicone then I would use mold star 15 for the silicone then clean it an put in shoe ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very Good Product and Reliable *by E***N on November 7, 2024* I am ordering this product again, as a beginner I have made expensive mistakes with this product but other than the price, it is an amazing product.
