PlatSil Gel 00 – Platinum Silicone
User Endorsement:
"I’ve found this silicone perfect for repairing blank silicone babies. I’ve never used another silicone that works so well for dolls – it cures quickly, thickens easily with Thi-Vex, and its natural viscosity means fewer drips while working. I also use it for painting (mixing pigments and diluting as with Psycho Paint). Often I underpaint with PlatSil Gel before sealing and matting with Psycho Paint.
I regularly recommend this product in my tutorials, although some students do find it difficult to source."

Product Overview
PlatSil Gel 00 is an advanced prosthetic-grade platinum silicone rubber, widely recognised as an industry standard in special effects. This two-part silicone system mixes at a 1:1 ratio and offers a very fast set and de-mould time, making it highly versatile for both hobbyists and professionals.
Because of its fast cure properties, it is ideal for:
- fixing blank kits after casting, filling bubbles, repairing seams and all other jobs

- under-painting doll with the silicone mixed with pigments and thinners, as you would use psycho paint
