This high-performance, universal investment works equally well for all alloys and pressable ceramics. Its wide expansion range allows technician to achieve optimal fit using the rapid or standard burnout technique. Robust bimodal nature strengthens molds and promotes easier devesting when working on more fragile materials such as all-ceramic restorations. Using only a 15-minute bench set and 30-minute burnout, Formula 1 reduces processing time and increases lab productivity.
