Hello List,

Does anyone have any experience/suggestions when it comes to how to apply a fabric cover to a custom injection molded silicone liner? We are currently letting our custom liners gel up, demolding them and then smearing a thin layer of silicone over the partially set liner and laying on a lycra cover. Wondering if there are any other methods out there?

Likewise any experience with imbedding a matrix into a custom injection molded silicone liner? We are currently doing a double injection mold technique and laying the fabric matrix on the first injection prior to doing the section injection. What materials are you using for the matrix?

Thanks!
