Product Description
FLABBERCAST is set up as a three component liquid material system. When added in increased amounts, the "C" component takes the basic A/B mixture from the texture of an ordinary soft gumdrop to a jelly-like consistency. One of the most unusual, yet, important features of this product is that regardless of the consistency, FLABBERCAST can bounce back to its original shape. The maximum amount of "C" that can be added is 200% to a total A/B mixture. This level of "C" produces a gel that has a sticky, pressure-sensitive adhesive type surface. This can be a desirable feature as it can keep the gel in place when it is used to fill a bladder or bag.
