I watched that video and found the silicone or pvs matrix over the teeth very interesting how he poured something on the matrix which allowed him to pour the stone directly onto the matrix creating some kind of bond between the two. does anyone know what that material was???

I could be mistaken but it sounds like hydent is asking about the adhesive crystals added to the silicone separating agent to give the stone a way to adhere to the silicone.

I think it was a crystal of some sort I have used sand it will do the same job it enables the surface of the silicone covering the teeth to mechanical join to the stone. Any irregular shaped material that will not be effected by heat or pressure would work the same way. eg glass crystal, Silicone crystals

Walnut shells and a little pumice.

cool I just learned something new! anyone use this technique? I know most guys cover it with putty, but this looks more efficient and uses less expensive materials. Its weird because I was trying to think of something last week to do this. I was thinking fiberglass fibers sprinkled on top of the matrix... you can buy at the local plastic shop.
