Discover the ultimate solution to cure inhibition with Smooth-On Inhibit X™ Pint, a single-component, low-viscosity liquid designed to provide an added layer of protection when pouring platinum silicone rubbers over a range of surfaces. Whether you're working with sulfur clay, instant adhesives, tapes, wood surfaces, certain plastics, SLA resins, or other sensitive materials, Inhibit X™ ensures a successful cast every time.

Inhibit X™ is specifically formulated to combat cure inhibition, a common issue that can occur when pouring platinum silicone rubbers over certain surfaces. This innovative product allows artists, designers, and manufacturers to achieve precise, detailed molds and casts without the risk of inhibition. By applying Inhibit X™ to the surface, you can confidently create complex designs and intricate details, knowing that the rubber will cure properly.

To ensure optimal results, it's essential to follow the recommended instructions for using Inhibit X™. Start by conducting a small-scale test on a similar surface to ensure compatibility, as this product has a limited shelf life and should be used promptly. Next, apply at least two coats of Inhibit X™ to the surface, allowing each coat to dry before applying the second. Finally, apply Ease Release™ 200, a specially formulated release agent designed for use with tin and platinum catalyzed silicone rubbers.

When working with platinum silicones, it's crucial to take extra precautions to prevent cure inhibition. Inhibit X™ is especially important when working with sulfur-bearing clays and tin-cured silicones, as these materials can be particularly challenging. By applying three coatings of Inhibit X™ prior to applying the release agent, you can ensure a successful cast every time.

Inhibit X™ is not only effective but also easy to use, making it an ideal solution for artists, designers, and manufacturers of all skill levels. Simply brush the liquid onto the surface, allowing each coat to dry before applying the next. For a more even application, you can use an aerosol pump spray to create a light mist coating. Regardless of the method, Inhibit X™ provides a reliable way to prevent cure inhibition and achieve professional-quality results.

As with any flammable liquid, it's essential to exercise extreme caution when handling Inhibit X™. Be sure to follow safety protocols and refer to the MSDS for further safety information. With Smooth-On Inhibit X™ Pint, you can have confidence in your ability to create complex, detailed molds and casts with ease.
