Dragon Skin

Dragon Skin and Dragon Skin Q are high performance platinum cure silicone rubbers that can be mixed 1A : 1B by weight or volume and cures at room temperature with no shrinkage to a shore 10A. Cured Dragon Skin is very “stretchy”. It will stretch many times its original size and will rebound to its original form without distortion.

Dragon Skin is suitable for many special effects applications, especially animatronics where repetitive motion is required. It is water white translucent and will accept pigments for creating color effects or for creating a paint that can be painted on to an existing Dragon Skin (or other) silicone surface. Because of the superior physical properties and softness of Dragon Skin, it is used for orthopedic and cushioning applications. Dragon Skin has a pot life of 20 minutes and a demold time of 5 hours.

In a hurry? Dragon Skin Q (Q=Quick) has a pot life of 8 minutes and a demold time of 75 minutes.

Simulated wound made with Dragon Skin and Silc Pig pigments. Made by Guy Louis SFX (Canada).
