The silicone I mentioned is translucent clear... take 1/4 glass of milk and fill it with water... about that color. You will need pigments... more on that in a second. If your doll has a minor tear... use this:
Shin Etsu Silicone
Just use it sparingly. It cures once exposed to air... a thin coating is all it takes... otherwise you will feel a harder area.

I do not open Shin Etsu Silicone link. Please re write or give a different link to access SHİN eTSU sİLİCONE THAT jerry mentioned.

Jerry's post is from 2005 8O

A few years ago, I got a tube of Shin-Etsu Silicone (1 Component RTV, KE-42-T) from 4Woods Europe. All information on the tube and the package is in Japanese, but I know how to use it for small repairs.

Here are some websites of Shin-Etsu:

I haven't used any of these materials. How easy are they to use?

It's sad that most of these links no longer work or the item is no longer available :(

I've searched for the proper silicone material for a while and haven't really found anything besides an expensive Asian retailer and generic silicone caulking (lol)

That's Awesome samara.

I've been using Smooth On for my Mini, and they make a great product. I've been using Psyco Paint and Sil Pig for coloring Jilly Bean. It's working out great.

I have some of their other products, but haven't had chance to test them.

Has any of these companies thought to make the skeleton have bones formed from a light material on these dolls to prevent finger pokes and other damage that the metal would do to the doll? Plus it may make the doll's weight lighter and easier to handle.

For smooth on products, what would be the best combination that is food safe, no color transfer from clothes, hard to rip, and minimal if no gravity warping? I don't need an exact mixture combination, I just want to narrow down my research.
