Tare Scale
Scale used to determine tare, the weight of a material found by deducting the weight of the container holding that material from the total weight. Used with measuring silicone, urethane, etc.
Tin Silicone
Tin Silicones have a tin base. These are used for mold making primarily. They are not usually used for prosthetics as they leach the tin oil and make adhering to skin impossible. Some tin silicone set quicker than others or an additive can be mixed in that makes the silicone set up faster. The difference in set time is the amount of tin that is added to the base.
Not acceptable for making molds that are used in food preparation.

Able to transmit light, as in translucent. Some products that are translucent are Powders, silicone and some pigments. These either have no color or very little so that you can see through them.
