PRODUCT INFORMATION
Stock No. S385
CAUTION: U.S. Federal Law restricts the use of this material to licensed professionals.

STORE AT ROOM TEMPERATURE IN A DARK LOCATION. AVOID FREEZING.

DESCRIPTION:
Parkell’s BluSep™ separating film is a polymer-based, water-soluble separating agent. It is espe-
cially useful as a barrier to prevent adhesion of C&B-Metabond to those areas where bonding is
undesirable (exterior of crown, proximal teeth). BluSep can be used as a cavity or crown prepara-
tion spacer to facilitate the removal of temporary resin materials, like Snap™ or SmarTemp®. It can
also be used
®
as a die release material on stone, epoxy or silicone dies, like those fabricated from
MACH-2 or MACH-SLO™.

DIRECTIONS:
1. Dispense a drop or two of BluSep into a dappen dish. Recap immediately to avoid evaporation.
2. Apply to desired surfaces with any convenient device, e.g., MicroBrush®, fine brush, sponge
pledget, etc.
3. Evaporate solvent with a gentle flow of air.
4. For greater film thickness or stronger releasing effect, repeat application.
5. BluSep will prevent resins, cements, adhesives, etc. from adhering to surfaces upon which it has
been applied. They can be easily removed with any hand instrument.
6. BluSep is removed from surfaces by vigorous rinsing with water. If the blue material is not com-
pletely rinsed off by the water, gently rub the surface with a toothbrush, moistened cotton roll or
2X2, pumice/water on a brush or cup, etc.

PRECAUTIONS:
• Store at room temperature in a dark environment. If refrigerated, AVOID FREEZING. Should inad-
vertent freezing occur, permit the material to liquefy completely before use.
• Avoid contamination. Do not mix components with those of other materials. After use, dispose of
leftover material in dappen dish. Do not return dispensed components to their original container.
• Avoid material over-run onto those surfaces to be bonded. BluSep will prevent bonding from
occurring.
• Contains ethyl alcohol. Recap immediately after use to avoid excess solvent evaporation.
• Protect patient’s eyes when using dental materials.

WARNINGS:
This material is NOT for internal use, and is CONTRAINDICATED for use on or by persons who are
sensitive to any of its ingredients. If signs of irritation develop, immediately stop use. If BluSep should
get onto the skin or mucosa, wipe off with alcohol and wash thoroughly with copious water. If BluSep
inadvertently gets into the eye(s), rinse thoroughly with running water. Contact a physician.

HELPFUL HINTS:
• When cementing a crown or prosthesis, pre-coat those surfaces that are not to be bonded.
• After cavity or crown preparation, a coat of BluSep agent will prevent lock-on of temporary resins
and/or cements.
• BluSep on stone, epoxy or silicone dies will serve as relief for minor undercuts as well as a sep-
arating agent to prevent lock-on of resins, waxes, etc.

Parkell will replace defective material. This warranty is in lieu of all warranties of merchantabil-
ity, fitness for purpose or other warranties, express or implied. Parkell does not accept liability for
any loss or damage, direct, consequential or otherwise, arising out of the use of or the inability to use
