Body Double™ is a long lasting platinum-cure silicone rubber that can be applied directly to the skin to make moulds of the face, hands and other body parts. The rubber cures quickly and will reproduce perfect detail from any original model – far better detail than any alginate! Body Double™ is skin safe and certified by an independent laboratory.
Starter kit contains all supplies needed to make a mould and support shell of a moderately sized area of the body. Includes trial size Body Double™ Silicone, 2 rolls of 4" width bandages, Body Double™ Release Cream, mixing sticks and containers. Read TB and SDS Before Using.
One Casting or Many . . . For About The Same Price: unlike alginates, which are good for one only casting, Body Double™ will last for many castings of almost any material including plaster, Matrix™ Neo™, wax, resins (Smooth-Cast urethanes, polyester, etc.), low-temperature melt metal alloys, etc. The amount of Body Double™ used per mould is less than most alginates, so the cost per mould is about the same. Adding HYPERFOLIC™ release additive to Body Double™ silicone will create a self-releasing silicone which is easily removed from hair-covered body areas.
Body Double™ “Standard Set” for larger surface areas. Working time of 5 minutes and a demould time of 20 minutes.
*Depending on material temperature, ambient temperature and body temperature – see “Preparation” below for details.
