Silicone mask breakdown/turning to goo

edited April 2022 in General
Hi, 

A friend brought a silicone mask to me that is turning to goo where teeth and an eye were placed.  The entire mask is very sticky.  Is there a way to repair this?

Just for the record, I didn't make this mask.  It was one he bought at a horror convention.  He's just hoping I can fix it.  Any advice or information would greatly appreciated.  I have some ideas but would love any insight you may have.

Thank you.

    It could be some type of oil contamination, or if it was sticky from the first day it's possible it did not cure properly.

    I suggest cleaning the mask, based on the manufacturer's recommended cleaning instructions.  If it is still sticky, a little bit of baby powder could help.  I suggest they talk directly with the manufacturer though.
