Best release agent for encapsulated silicone prosthetics
in Lab work
Hi!
I've been working in a couple shops and there's always that "battle" about what is the best release agent for releasing encaspulated silicone prosthetics. To be precise, Ultracal30 positive and Procast 132 urethane negative. Or just both negative and positive made with Procast 132. I've heard diluted vaseline with naphta, epoxy parfilm4, frekkot liff, wax and the list goes on... What release agent gives you the best results? I'm mostly looking to not having to powder like crazy the prosthetic while taking it out from the mold, something that makes the prosthetic get out without sticking on itself. And that leaves the encapsulation as clear as possible, as well as being easy to clean just before application.
Thank you !!
