3. Instructions for use
3.1. APPLICATION TECHNIQUES
3.1.1. Reflex Thick Manipulation – Check out the step-by-step here – Dose the desired amount, using the measuring spoon, filling it completely and removing the excess. – Spread the dosed material over the palm of your hand and mark it with the measuring spoon. – For each scoop of REFLEX Thick used, measure out the REFLEX Catalyst in the proportion equivalent to twice the diameter of the dosing scoop (cross shape or two parallel lines of equal lengths, for example). – Mix the two pastes with your fingertips for up to 30 seconds, ensuring a homogeneous mixture. – Insert the prepared material into the tray and take the impression within 1:45 seconds. – Hold in mouth for 4 minutes.
3.1.2. Reflex Fluid Manipulation – Check out the step-by-step here – Dispense equal amounts of the base and catalyst paste onto a surface suitable for mixing (glass plate, mixing block). – Spatulate for 30 seconds, ensuring a homogeneous mixture. – Insert the material into the tray and take the impression within 1:45 seconds. – Hold in mouth for 4 minutes.
3.2. CLINICAL TIMES
REFLEX silicones, regardless of their consistency, present the following clinical times:
| Mixing Time (23ºC) | 30 seconds |
| Working Time (23ºC) | up to 1 min and 45 seconds |
| Permanence Time in Mouth (37ºC) | 4 minutes |
| Time to Cast | 30 min to 72h after the impression was taken |
