(Taking reference from Selley's Epoxy putty sticks) Wet your fingers and palms to prevent sticking and try to make it as smooth a ball as possible, you don't want any large folds or gaps as it'll show in the final product.
Getting down to making the impressionsġ) Lube up your inner ears and the outer ears with vaseline, strangely, it's the outer part that sticks more to the epoxy, so lube up well to avoid PAIN.Ģ) Mix up the epoxy, you'll need about a quarter stick of it for each ear. Therefore, if you decide to use epoxy as I did, do not wear a glove while mixing, if you're allergic, it's better to find out with your fingers not your ear canal.Ģ) Some people have "hooked canals", so if the impression material you're using is not flexible, you may have a really hard time removing it. In fact, Epoxy putty is a pretty poor choice as people are known to be allergic to epoxy.
I would recommend open mouthed, biting on a mint tin or something while taking the impressions, read below for more views on the issue.ġ) I used epoxy putty but I'm sure any material that is pliable and hardens when cured will do the job. First of all, you can take impressions either with your mouth open or closed.
