for all impression techniques: two-stage(double impression*) or single-stage (simultaneous).
Elite HD+ Tray Material: High viscosity vinylpolysiloxane. Recommended for filling impression
trays in conjunction with a 'wash' within the Elite HD+ range (i.e. light body, extra light body &
regular body) in the single-stage (simultaneous) technique.
Elite HD+ Monophase: Medium viscosity hydrophilic vinylpolysiloxane. A single viscosity
monophase material recommended for use as a preparation wash and for filling individual impression
trays. Also if desired this Monophase can be used in conjunction with a 'wash' from the Elite HD+
range (i.e. light body, extra light body & regular body) in the single-stage (simultaneous) technique.
Elite HD+ Regular Body: Medium viscosity hydrophilic vinylpolysiloxane. Recommended for use in
conjunction with Elite HD+ Putty or Tray Material in the single-stage (simultaneous) technique, or as
a monophase material in a special tray.
Elite HD+ Light Body: Low viscosity hydrophilic vinylpolysiloxane. Recommended for use
in conjunction with Elite HD+ Putty or Tray Material in the two-stage (double impression*) or
single-stage (simultaneous) technique.
Elite HD+ Super Light Body: Very low viscosity hydrophilic vinylpolysiloxane. Recommended for
use in conjunction with Elite HD+ Putty or Tray Material in the two-stage (double impression*) or in
the single-stage (simultaneous) technique.
*When using this product in the two-stage (double impression) technique, we recommend that you
place a polythene spacer sheet on the putty during the first stage of impression taking to improve
detail quality in the next stage.
IMPRESSION TRAYS: PREPARATION AND ADHESIVES
All standard and/or special trays can be used, provided they are rigid and non-deformable. The range
of Zhermack's Hi-Tray impression trays are especially recommended.
Proper adhesion of the material to the impression tray is essential to avoid errors, especially during
removal from the mouth. To ensure a strong bond, make sure that the adhesive is appropriate for the
type and material of the tray. Three different types of adhesive are supplied for this purpose:
ELITE IPERLINK LCT: a two-component adhesive for light-curing special trays.
ELITE IPERLINK SCT: adhesive for self-curing trays and disposable plastic trays.
UNIVERSAL TRAY ADHESIVE: especially effective adhesive for standard metal trays.
IMPORTANT: when using special trays, ask the technician if the resin used is self or light curing.
For correct use, follow the instructions for each individual adhesive.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
Elite HD+ PUTTY
MIXING:
- Take the 2 components out of the tubs using the colour coded dosing spoons.
- Mix identical proportions of Base and Catalyst; until you obtain a homogeneous mix, with no
streaks (about 30 sec.). Then place into the impression tray.
WARNINGS:
- Proportions must be strictly observed in order to have the right setting times: a larger quantity of
catalyst does not accelerate the setting time.
- Close tubs immediately after use. Do not invert lids, lower lids and dosing spoons.
- Contact with latex gloves may prevent polysiloxanes from hardening. Avoid direct or indirect
contact with latex gloves. Instead, wash your hands well to eliminate all traces of impurities or use vinylgloves.
- Take care not to stain your clothing as vinylpolysiloxanes are chemically resistant.
Elite HD+ FLUIDS CARTRIDGE VERSION

PREPARING THE DEVICE:

Assemble the device as shown in the drawings (1-2).
Warning: Before assembling the tip, ensure that the two components (base and catalyst) flow out
evenly by applying a light pressure on the dispenser lever and extruding a small amount of material,
which must be removed (3).
Subsequently, insert the mixing tip and, if required, the intraoral tip in the cartridge. (4)
Elite HD+ FLUIDS TUBE VERSION
(Only for Elite HD+ Light Normal and Elite HD+ Regular)
MIXING:
Spread the components in lines of equal length on the mixing pad. Mix thoroughly with the spatula,
until a homogeneous colour is obtained, according to the times shown on the schedule. After use,
recap the tube, making sure the caps are not reversed.
