List,
ProComp, a new material , see below....we get it from Ortoped here in
Canada...
<URL Redacted>
New material for us to use...did some testing...on a dry plaster cast it is
perfect...no spring or shrinkage...came off the cast just like a
lamination...have been waiting for something like this forever!!!
Then, we molded over ¼” thermofoam or aliplast (similar to what most would
do for CROW walkers). It shrunk on us, just like regular Polypro would do.
That was a letdown.
Any tips to prevent this shrinkage when molding over foams??? Or have
others had this same experience???
Thank you,
