Modification of a Super-Sep bottle for paint-on application of a separating medium used in flasking dentures.
Modifying a Super-Sep bottle by adding a brush to the lid for paint-on use allows for the precise application of the separating medium used when flasking dentures. Super-Sep offers many advantages over other commonly used separating mediums: It is virtually dimensionless, allowing for better accuracy; it dries quickly and functions best on moist stone; and it can be poured against immediately. The latter fact means less time is needed before the subsequent layers of stone can be applied when denture flasking.
