Mikrosil Silicone Casting Material
To
reproduce the most subtle tool marks and impressions forensic experts
rely on Mikrosil Silicone Casting Material. Proven in laboratory tests
to be superior to other known flexible silicone casting techniques, by
dramatically increasing the visibility of tool marks, firing pin
impressions, and latent fingerprint lifts. Mikrosil increases the
probability of positive identifications. Used extensively in the field
and the laboratory, with remarkable results. Each set includes Mikrosil
Silicone, hardener, mixing cards, instructions, and wooden mixing
sticks. Available in brown, black, white, and gray. Not for use on
living human skin. Brown Mikrosil is the ideal choice to reproduce tool
marks. Black Mikrosil may be used to lift latent prints developed with
gray, white, or fluorescent powders on uneven or textured surfaces. The
contrast between the lighter colored powders and the black background
makes the latent prints easy to see and easy to photograph. White
Mikrosil is very useful for lifting latent prints developed with black
powder on uneven or textured surfaces, or recovering friction ridge
detail from deceased individuals. Gray Mikrosil may be used to recover
latent fingerprints, tool marks, or postmortem ridge detail. The neutral
tone of the gray silicone material facilitates photographic efforts.
