When a second application and firing of porcelain is required— such as margin repair or the addition of proximal or occlusal contacts— Tanaka Margin-X™ Porcelain Extension Liquid, when mixed with porcelain powders, inhibits dry-out and ensures adequate time for condensing. Comes in Pink and Blue

Tanaka Staining Medium prolongs the use of surface stains by inhibiting dry-out and, unlike glycerin-based products, leaves no residue after firing. Applied to bisque fired restorations, Tanaka Staining Medium duplicates the color to be achieved by glaze firing and provides an ideal wetting for the elimination of microporosity when stains and glazes are applied.  Available in 2 oz dropper bottles.

When used in combination with the AT-4 Opaque Instrument, superior results can be routinely achieved. Tapping condensation while drying with a hai...
