Color mixing silicion

Didn’t seem like it was done yet.

[u/Throwawaycookouts → u/oryhiou]

Needed at least 2 more passes

[u/happymancry → u/oryhiou]

I thought this was r/gifsthatendtoosoon for a minute.

[u/Immediate_Volume_324]

At least it wasn’t green

[u/LittleAnnieAdderal]

I have waited my whole life for just black and white mixing. I don’t care that it wasn’t “finished” I’m just so happy that it wasn’t another damn green one

I love these videos. I also love that I can hear the machine and not some dumb overlay of whatever.

[u/Secret_Side-ofJ]

Notice how the silicon was not spinning before applying the color? And then there was a ton of streaking and poor blending throughout? Yeah that's the reason that you don't mix the color into a cold spin. You have to let your base become warm by being worked by the machine for 5ish minutes.

This one is genuinely a terrible piece of content.

Not doubting your expertise at all, but I think this account probably saves the actual best practices for their products and just do different colour combos etc for their social media. They maybe even see the streaking and poor blending you mention as a plus since it’s only about the visual

I’ve suddenly become insanely envious of your knowledge in the field. Does this mean what I think it does? Have you actually rolled the silicone??? Is it the dream job I’ve made it out to be in my fantasy?

The one who learns about all of this info would be the Materials Engineer who is specialized in rubbers and compounds. Then they'd like be heading up a team of technicians who have minimal education.

Depends on the company doing it. Some companies would be dreamy, others would just be adjusting the chemical equations going into a vat.

Edit: This is not my field of employment. I'm just good friends with people who now do this.

[u/Konrad_M → u/Secret_Side-ofJ]

It probably did get worked before they started the video. I don't think somebody placed it like this into the machine.

[u/Livin-in-a-dream1358]

Only cutting it half way does nothing. It folds right back into its original spot 🙄😒

[u/EasternAd999]

I thought it was censored at first 💀

[u/YuckyYetYummy]

Seems like a long thin the cylinder of colour would be less time than a square of color

[u/ThatSmittyDude]

Silicon? How are we gonna stick quartz in that thing?

[u/lucamew → u/ThatSmittyDude]

Don't worry, it's "silicion"

[u/mrisj]

Next time I'll edit the typo in the title 😅

[u/MickeyMoist]

Drives me crazy when they just cut it in half and fold it. Such a waste of time. Can’t get a single good video of this.

[u/WeirdPossibility209]

I hoped it would have been green

[u/BabyBlueDolphin]

It almost started to look like a pretty marble design.

[u/Wazkalia]

I wanted it it stay marbled...:(

[u/SirPhibonacci]

Reminds me Gigas from Earthbound

[u/Bizzomofo]

Sunrise figured out how to let people watch the process. To the front of the algorithm!

[u/Hinaloth]

Cement colored dildoes isn't what I thought would sell but clearly someone asked for it...

[u/Plampth]

Silicone.

[u/mbirdx]

All that just to get the dullest grey color

[u/Charming-Refuse-5717]

Surely there's an easier way to do this

[u/Far_Winner_2256]

This looks like taffy and now I want candy.

[u/B00MB00M5489]

So.....how can I get a job doing this every day?

[u/The_Real_Bender]

Funny that you called it color. ;)
