SilkeMat™ Kit - Two 12" Squares and One Quart Rigidizer
The manufacturer states that 1 pint of Rigidizer to 1 square foot of SilkeMat ratio. Therfore we are offering here one Rigidizer and two square feet of SilkeMat om this kit.
SilkeMat™ Is a NON-CARCINOGENIC refractory fiber blanket that can be cut, molded, rigidized and formed. It can be used with and without rigidizing. To date, we have not had float glass stick to it in normal fusing temperatures, nor any other glass in slumping temperatures. Although a high-grade boron nitride separator could be used for art glass firings. There is no “shot” in this product and all firings are clean, leaving only the texture of the fiber on the glass. Neither is a respirator needed to cut or work with SilkeMat™.
SilkeMat® Rigidizer is NON-FLAMMABLE and formulated for molding SilkeMat® into rigid reusable molds of the highest quality in performance. Easy to use, our Rigidizer cures at 1450F for pot melts and vitrigraph molds, and can even be used to solidify just the outer shell of the SilkeMat® mold to retain a soft, release-free interior for slumping any glass. Properly prepared and fired, all SilkeMat® molds are usually reusable for numerous firings.
