Direction To Use
- All standard and/or special trays can be used, provided they are rigid and non-deformable. The range of Zhermack’s Hi-Tray impression trays are especially recommended. Proper adhesion of the material to the impression tray is essential to avoid errors, especially during removal from the mouth. To ensure a strong bond, make sure that the adhesive is appropriate for the type and material of the tray.
- Take the 2 components out of the tubs using the colour coded dosing spoons.
- Mix identical proportions of Base and Catalyst; until you obtain a homogeneous mix, with no streaks (about 30 sec.). Then place into the impression tray.
- Contact with latex gloves may prevent polysiloxanes from hardening. Avoid direct or indirect contact with latex gloves, Instead, wash your hands well to eliminate all traces of impurities or use vinyl gloves
