Storing A Silicone Mask

[🪦 shadowmyst ●]

I'm not exactly sure how to store a silicone mask. Do I need to keep the head stuffed? Or could I just throw it in a plastic trash bag?Thanks

yes

If your talking about your SPFX Freddy didn't it come with an armature to put it on? If not I would buy one that way it won't distort. Silicone is flexible but it needs to maintain its shape. Just keep it dusted and moisture free and you'll be good to go. Get a full head armature from Monster makers or something. around $50 - $60

Just get a soda bottle and put a black trash bag over it and put the mask on that and put it in a show case!!!Thats the easy way hehe

Dust free..cool, and in it's original shape and it'll stay fresh for years! Silicone can only get worn down when you wear it...SPFX masks are reinforced in the mouth and eye areas but those are still delicate spots. They can be worn down like anything else.

Original shape is the shape it is cast in the molds...so I do mean stuffing it. Basically stuffing it as the sculpture was intended to be

I keep mine on foam heads, or stuff with newspaper and store in plastic bag tied closed.

[🪦 shadowmyst ●]

Well right now its being stuffed with plastic bags, thats how it was shipped to me so I guess thats how I'll store it.Thanks

I would still get an armature to display it on. It'll look better plus it'll retain the shape.
