PlatSil Gel Silicone is a platinum silicone that you can use to create countless objects. Being a silicone that heals quickly and is very safe, it can be used both in molds and on the skin.
Do you like to create things with your own hands and make all kinds of objects? With the Silicone PlatSil Gel it is much easier, since it is very simple to use. Tan you will only have to add its corresponding Deadener to gel it and get encapsulatedprosthetics.
These prosthetics imitate the skin very well, which makes PlatSil Gel silicone the best silicone on the market when it comes to making prosthetics with silicone.
As we have already mentioned in the previous section, PlatSil Gel silicone is very easy and intuitive to use so it is perfect if you already have some notions of modeling with silicone or if this is the first time.
The encapsulated prosthetics of PlatSil Gel silicone mimic the skin very well, in addition, thanks to the fact that they have a translucent tone they can be mixed with different pigments to obtain the perfect skin tone.
This is really useful in makeup or characterization work, since it allows to obtain the expected result and of an impressive quality and verisimilitude.
PlatSil Gel silicone is the best on the market because it goes completely unnoticed, molds to one's own face and is not noticeable.
The world of replicas with platinum silicone is a very wide world that must be discovered little by little, but that offers endless creative possibilities. However, that's what we're at Feroca for, so we can teach you a little more about this wonderful creative universe with platinum silicone.
Next, we will show you more in detail the possibilities of using PlatSil Gel silicone .
One of the star creations that can be obtained through platinum silicone are those known as babies or reborn dolls, which have already been on the market for many years and there are many people who have ventured to create them.
Our specialist Juan Villa, teaches you how to make reproductions with PlatSil Gel silicone in the following video:

Something fundamental when choosing silicone as a copy material is that it is translucent. However, in Feroca you will not have to worry about that, since our range of silicone PlatSil Gel, recommended silicone material, is.
Why is it important for it to be translucent? Well, as we have mentioned before, that it is translucent makes the pigments are absorbed better, so it will allow you to dye it the color you want. In the case of reborn dolls you can give them the skin tone you want most.
Another fundamental factor when choosing the best silicone for the reproductions of reborn babies is the shore; that is, the elasticity of the silicone or how soft and malleable it will be. Depending on the reproduction work with platinum silicone that you want to do, you will be interested in it being softer or having a little more body.
However, for the reproductions of reborn babies, PlatSil Gel silicone is one of the fastest when it comes to polymerizing, since not all silicones polymerize at the same time.
Working time is essential. For example, in a more complex piece to reproduce with platinum silicone, it is also more interesting a longer working time that allows to better reach all the gaps and details.
In the case of reborn dolls, PlatSil Gel silicone is optimal, since it has a shorter working time and a shorter release time. What is achieved with this? Perfect platinum silicone replicas.
Finally, to carry out a reproduction in platinum silicone of a reborn baby it is essential to have a mold. In the Feroca blog you can find different articles in which we talk about the different types of molds and how to make your own.
It is not worth just any mold, but it must be a special mold to make reproductions in silicone. In Feroca we have a lot of informative posts about it, such as the one we show you below: Epoxy mold compatible with platinum silicones.
Returning to the main aspect that interests us: platinum silicone can polymerize badly due to pollution problems. These problems occur when they are in contact with other material. For example, there are problems of inhibition in contact with polyester, latex...
When you go to work with this silicone you should not wear latex gloves but nitrile gloves.
In the technical data sheet of this silicone you can find more examples of contamination problems with silicones, but when it comes to making reproductions of baby reborn this is one of the most important.
In addition, as we have already mentioned before, apart from reborn babies, with PlatSil Gel silicone you can also make a prosthetics, a characterization or an encapsulation.
To dye platinum silicone the color you want, at Feroca we offer you a wide selection of pigments.
It is convenient to dye only one of the two halves of the mixture, since the secret of reproductions with platinum silicone is that the color is not too saturated.
When hyperrealistic copies are made, for example, not only in the case of reborn babies, but also when making prosthetics, the most ideal would be that a realistic skin tone should also remain and not too saturated.
For example, surely you have seen in a movie that a younger actor or actress has suddenly been characterized as someone older or with other traits; or even that a double has been done. Surely on more than one occasion you were curious to know how that was possible. Well, now you know: with platinum silicone and its perfect reproductions.
Whether for pure hobby or because you dedicate yourself professionally to it, if you like all the work of molding and shaping different objects that you can create yourself, the platinum silicone PlatSil Gel is ideal for you to start all your creations.
