About GM Foam Latex Kits
GM Foam is a four-part professional “hot” foam latex system sold in 1-quart, 1-gallon and 5-gallon kits.  This foam is whipped in a mixer, filled into molds, and cured in a low temperature oven (not a household food oven).

Before you cast a foam latex appliance, you will need to create a life cast, sculpt and mold a prosthetic.  Please read about the basic process for making a mask before purchasing a kit.  Our how-to videos are an excellent way to learn how to make quality foam latex masks and appliances.

MICAD Additive for GM Foam Latex
MICAD Additive for GM Foam Latex

MICAD
MICAD
is a foam latex additive that allows whipping to greater volumes while still keeping the cells fine.  Very soft foams can be achieved using this additive to create life-like skin movement and wrinkling.  Normally, high rise foams tend to get thick, and the cells become large.  With this additive, the cells remain small and the foam remains pourable.

Even high rise batches pour beautifully, and flow over fine mold details without catching air. The development of this fluid has eased the lives of foamers all over the world. Many labs depend on GM Foam Flow Increaser to get results.

GM Foam Stabilizer
GM Foam Stabilizer

Foam Stabilizer
In the summer it is often impossible to get your foam room as cool as you want it to be. Foam gels faster than you’d like. By adding a couple of grams of foam stabilizer to the batch, you can extend your working time, even under hot and humid conditions, and fill your molds before the foam gels. This product is a must for labs in hot climates, and for those without climate control in their foam rooms.
