Zip-Mix Hard-Core Blue compound
The Sirchie Zip-Mix Hard-Core Blue is a gypsum-based casting compound supplied with a dedicated mixing solution. It is designed for forensic professionals and investigators who require precise, high-strength reproductions of impression evidence. The pre-measured package simplifies preparation for reliable field and lab use.
6 lbs compound with 48 oz solution
The kit provides six pounds of compound and forty-eight ounces of mixing solution in a fixed 2:1 ratio for consistent casting. This volume handles multiple impression casts while maintaining structural integrity during handling and transport. Users should note that trial casts are recommended to verify results before evidential work.
HCB100 pre-measured kit format
The HCB100 identifier denotes the specific pre-measured kit that eliminates manual weighing of the compound and solution. This format ensures the correct ratio is achieved every time, reducing preparation errors during investigations. Buyers needing bulk loose compound or alternative mixing ratios will find this fixed-ratio kit unsuitable.

Questions about this item
Will the 2:1 ratio of the 6 lbs compound and 48 oz solution work with my existing mixing containers?
Yes, the pre-measured 2:1 ratio matches standard forensic casting containers, so you can use your current buckets or tubs without recalculating volumes.
How can I verify the HCB100 compound has cured to full strength after casting?
The finished cast will be hard, dimensionally stable, and show no surface dusting — Sirchie recommends a trial cast first to confirm the mix behaves as expected in your conditions.
Does the HCB100 box include the 6 lbs compound and 48 oz mixing solution, or must I buy the solution separately?
The HCB100 package ships with both the 6 lbs Hard-Core Blue compound and the 48 oz Zip-Mix solution inside; no separate purchase is required.
