3. PREPARING METAL CASTING
Sandblast with clean 50μ aluminium
oxide.
Blow surface clean with clean-dry air
and immediately prepare to apply
GC METALPRIMER II.
4. FOUNDATION OPAQUE (FO) 5. MARGIN OPAQUE (MO)
Apply FOUNDATION OPAQUE, a
100μm layer (thickness of RETENTION
BEADS II SSS). Note: If OPAQUE gets a little thick,
simply stir it with the brush to restore
fluidity. Opaques can ONLY be light cured
with GC LABOLIGHT LV-II/LV-III.
GC STEPLIGHT SL-I can not be used
for opaque pastes. For deeper, richer cervical colour,
apply MARGIN OPAQUE with round
brush.
6. OPAQUE (O) 7. INTENSIVE COLOR (IC7) 8. OPAQUS DENTIN (OD)
Apply two thin layers of OPAQUE
using flat brush. A too thick layer may not polymerize
as well.
Light cure first coat. Light cure second coat. To create translucency, add
INTENSIVE COLOR (IC7) to incisal
area.
Use round brush. For deeper, richer cervical color, add
OPAQUS DENTIN in 2-3 mm widths
around the cervical area.
Make (OD) one shade higher than
the crown.

Note: MARGIN OPAQUE (MO)
is applied onto FOUNDATION
OPAQUE (FO).
To avoid white line, do not apply
(MO) over opaque.
Apply one or two thin coats of
GC METALPRIMER II.
Allow to dry.
Surface will appear unchanged.
GC METALPRIMER II is very volatile.
Replace bottle cap immediately after
use.
As soon as surface is dry, immediately
apply FOUNDATION OPAQUE to
prevent surface contamination.
