Feels good
As smooth as I like it, the only downsides are price and availability.Easy to work with, lasts a long time, yields great results.

This is fantastic for complicated minis
It’s so stretchy and strong, I’ve made tens of copies and haven’t noticed any degradation yet. My other moulds made from let’s resin wore out very quickly. This is worth the slightly higher cost. It degassed well, very little bubbles. The working time is very short but the instruction say that. It’s pretty great to have a workable mould you can use in under an hour. It’s very thick, so plan to use more than normal. Or if you run out, just mix up another batch. I had to do that and it was seamless even though one layer went down about twenty mins before the other. Also, this company has amazing service. Call them with questions, they’re super helpful.

Unbelievably Durable & Comfortable! Worth Every Penny!
I recently purchased Dragon Skin for a project I was working on, and I have to say—I am thoroughly impressed! This material is a game-changer.In terms of appearance, the finish is top-notch, with a nice sheen that looks really high quality. Whether you're using it for costume design or for more functional purposes, Dragon Skin definitely gives your project a professional, polished look.If you're on the fence, I highly recommend giving Dragon Skin a try.

Product is great, the packaging on the other hand needs better quality control.
The product it's self is excellent, if not a bit pricey though I don't know of many alternatives with this quality in small quantities.Pours well, pot life is adequate and it sets relatively quick. Have had zero issues or quality changes in cured product when mixing with acrylics, can't say that for cheaper silicones.As for the downsides, while it is thin enough to get out most of the air bubbles, it isn't perfect and degassing is still required to eliminate them.Biggest issue I have is with the packaging, 2 out of 4 that I ordered from Amazon had both A & B bottles leaking, wasn't major, just enough to make the containers sticky but it seems to be a manufacturing issue as every one that was leaking had the seals crinkled like they were never fully sealed to begin with.

Its FX-Pro, whats not to love.
This stuff is great and I usually purchase it by the gallon from the manufacturer's main distributor, but whenever I need a small amount and I am travelling I grab these "sample kits" on Amazon.FX-Pro provides a very realistic skin for creating healthcare simulators and we often use it when we plan to train surgical procedures that need to have incisions or sutures. I have also used it to create training aids for service dogs due to its durability and supple yet strong shore hardness.

Great product
Love the dragon skin for making wounds! I teach a few trauma classes and these really up the realism. They are paintable to match skin tone (or you can use slic-pig paint for tinting). I use the 00-30 for the moulds and then this for the final wound.

A great product for many applications.
I've now tried the majority of Smooth-On's silicone trial kits. None has been a disappointment, but this is one of my favorites. Although marketed towards special effects, it serves admirably when making molds, especially of objects with severe undercuts. I do plan on getting their Silc-Pig sampler and Psycho Paint systems, but in the meantime found that mica powders work well as a colorant.I see some reviews for Smooth-On products telling of the wrong product arriving, something I've experienced myself. The 3rd party sellers are at fault, not the manufacturer. It is a rare event though, and still worth it to have free shipping. When you order through Smooth-On, there is a shipping fee and none of the perks of prime.
