Unit Size Net Weight Pint 1 lb Gallon 8 lb Five Gallon 40 lb Slacker is a one component translucent clear fluid that is added "by volume" to our translucent platinum-cure silicones such as Dragon Skin and Ecoflex products. Slacker will change the "feel" of the silicone rubber to a softer and more "flesh-like" material.Slacker alters the rebound properties of the silicone, making it feel more like human tissue. Slacker allows the user to vary the degree of tackiness to the cured silicone, allowing for the creation of self-sticking silicone appliances. The amount of tackiness is in direct proportion to the amount of slacker added. Pieces created with Slacker will not exude silicone oil, eliminating a common problem with other softening methods.Slacker can be added in larger proportions to Smooth-On's super soft and stretchy platinum silicones (for example, Ecoflex 00-30) to make silicone gel that can be used to create gel-filled silicone prosthetic appliances. Gel-filled appliances will flex, bend, and even wrinkle like human flesh. Silicone gels created with Slacker can also be used to create cushioning materials for medical applications (anaplastology).Use Skin Tite adhesive to temporarily, but securely, adhere silicone appliances to the skin. NOTE: Slacker should not be used with Ecoflex 00-10 or Ecoflex GEL. Documentation Technical Bulletin
