What it is used for
The Green Marble Selr Spray was originally developed to seal makeup and prevent it from staining costumes during long shoots and performances. Over time, it has established itself as one of the most versatile tools in special effects makeup thanks to its durability and alcohol resistance when dry.
- Sealing character makeup to prevent smudging and transfer onto costumes
- Setting artificial blood and wound effects on skin or prosthetics
- Sealing latex, foam latex and similar material prosthetics before or after painting
- Multilayer makeup technique: allows layering paint or makeup without reactivating previous layers
- Creating glazing effects and chromatic depth in complex character makeups
- Mixing with fillers and pigments for custom bronzing and texture effects
How to use it
- Apply the base makeup or paint to the skin or prosthetic as you normally would.
- Shake the spray well before use.
- Spray the Green Marble Selr Spray from a distance of approximately 20–30 cm over the area to be sealed, using even, sweeping movements.
- Allow to dry completely before touching the surface or applying additional layers.
- For multilayer technique: once dry, apply the next layer of makeup or paint and repeat the sealing process as many times as needed.
- If you wish to mix the sealer with pigments or fillers, do so in a separate container before applying.
- To clean treated areas, use a suitable FX makeup solvent such as Telesis 8 Thinner.
Usage tips
Spray distance and amount
To achieve a thin, even coat, keep the spray approximately 20–30 cm from the surface. Several thin coats are always preferable to a single thick one: it dries faster and the finish is cleaner and more natural. Applying too much product at once can create drips or an uneven texture.
Layered makeup technique
Alcohol resistance once dry is the key feature that makes this sealer particularly useful in special effects makeup techniques. Seal each layer before adding the next and you will achieve chromatic depth and glazes impossible to replicate with other sealers. You can combine this sealer with acrylic adhesives for FX makeup in areas where greater mechanical bonding of edges or prosthetics is required.
Mixing with pigments and fillers
The Green Marble Selr Spray can be mixed with pigments and fine fillers in a separate container to create bronzing, burned skin or other textured finishes. Always test the mixture on a test surface before applying it directly to the actor or the final prosthetic. To pre-bond silicone prosthetics, consider using Telesis 8 Adhesivo de Silicona, especially suited for silicone surfaces.
Frequently asked questions
How long does the makeup sealer take to dry?
The drying time of the Green Marble Selr Spray depends on the amount applied, the temperature and the ventilation of the environment. Under normal workshop conditions (room temperature and good ventilation), a thin coat dries in a few minutes. Always wait until the surface is completely dry to the touch before applying the next layer of makeup.
Can this sealer be used on silicone prosthetics?
The Green Marble Selr Spray is commonly used on latex and foam latex prosthetics. For silicone prosthetics, adhesion may vary depending on the silicone formulation. In these cases, it is recommended to do a preliminary test on a small area or to use silicone-specific adhesives such as Telesis 8 Adhesivo de Silicona.
What is the difference between an alcohol-resistant sealer and a regular one?
A conventional sealer can be reactivated or dissolved on contact with alcohol-based paints or activators, blending the layers and ruining previous work. The Green Marble Selr Spray, once dry, forms a stable barrier against alcohol, allowing you to work in multilayer techniques without risk of damaging the underlying layers.
Can I apply the sealer directly onto skin without makeup underneath?
Yes, it is possible to apply it to healthy skin as a setting or base layer. However, its primary function is to seal already-applied makeup. Never apply over eyes, mouth, cuts or irritated areas.
How is the sealer removed once the work is finished?
To remove the sealer from skin or to clean tools, use a suitable FX makeup solvent. Telesis 8 Thinner is a widely used compatible option in special effects workshops.
Is it suitable for long-duration work such as film shoots or live performances?
Yes. The Green Marble Selr Spray was designed precisely for these situations: to ensure makeup holds throughout extended working days without smudging or transfer. Its durability sets it apart from other sealers on the market.
Can it be mixed with pigments to obtain custom colours?
Yes. One of the advanced applications of the Green Marble Selr Spray is mixing it with pigments and fine fillers in a separate container to create bronzing, ageing or other custom texture finishes. It is recommended to run tests before using the mixture on the final work.
Which adhesive works best with this sealer to bond prosthetics?
It depends on the prosthetic material. For foam latex prosthetics, PROTAC Adhesivo acrílico para maquillaje FX is a common choice. For silicone prosthetics, Telesis 8 Adhesivo de Silicona offers better adhesion on silicone surfaces.
