Curing Sculpture ® Plus Opaques Sculpture Plus Opaques and the Opaque Conditioner, used to facilitate the bond between the opaque layer and the first composite body layer, are light cure materials. Both the Sculpture Plus Opaques and the Opaque Conditioner do not require exposure to pressure prior to light cure with pressure. As a result, the time for cure can be reduced by eliminating the pressure only segment of the cure cycles. The full 8-minute Build-Up and Final cure cycles are recommended for use once you begin to layer Sculpture Plus Composites over the opaque layer. Fig. 1 Fig. 2 Note: These instructions are provided to minimize curing time to 3 minutes for the opaques and 2 minutes for the opaque conditioner. The full 8-minute cure cycles may be used without affecting these materials. Sculpture Plus Opaques require a 3 minute light cure in the Final curing cycle of the Sculpture ® Curing Light. To set the Sculpture Curing Light to run the proper cure cycle for an opaque cure, follow these simple steps: 1. Press the "Final" button to select the Final cure cycle. 2. Press the "Minutes Down" button 5 times until the cycle time for the "Pressure" segment displays "0:00." The default pressure time setting is 5 minutes. 3. The Sculpture Curing Light is now set for a 3 minute light cure in the Final cycle Fig 1. 4. Press the "Start" button to run the cure cycle. Sculpture Plus Opaque Conditioner requires a 2 minute light cure in the Build-Up cycle of the Sculpture Curing Light. To set the Sculpture Curing Light for this cure follow these steps: 1. Press the "Build-Up" button to select the Build-Up cure cycle. 2. Press the "Minutes Down" button 5 times until the cycle time for the "Pressure" segment displays "0:00." The default pressure time setting is 5 minutes. 3. Press the "Select" button to switch to the "Pressure & Light" segment. The default time for this segment is 3 minutes. 4. Set the "Pressure & Light" segment time to "2:00" by pressing the "Minutes Down" button 1 time until the display reads "2:00." The Sculpture Curing Light is now set for a 2 minute light cure Fig 1. 5. Press the "Start" button to run the cure cycle. 4
