What is it indicated for?
Used as an impression material in a dual phase impression technique. It may also be used for precise duplication of models. Use Regular Set for capturing multiple unit impressions. It is suitable for all impression techniques where the operator needs an extra low viscosity material. Use Fast Set for capturing one preparation only (single unit crown); ideal for double arch dual phase techniques.
Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
