Points to remember when getting fit for a pair of Insta-Mold's... 
- For maximum results, your Insta-Molds should be made with a syringe by a qualified provider.
- Insta-Mold ear protection is virtually non-shrinkable and can be used in a variety of noise or water related activities.
- Unlike other imitations, Insta-Molds use a "Seal-Kote" to add luster and provides a "skin" to protect the mold against dirt and grime.
- For growing ears in children and adults, Insta-Molds can be made tighter by reapplying an Insta-Seal coating to the outside of the earplugs.
- Insta-Molds are hypoallergenic and nontoxic to normal skin containing a special salt complex that works as an antiseptic astringent and fungicide.
- Insta-Molds are known for providing a reliable "tissue-to-tissue" fit that duplicates every crevice and contour of the ear.
- Only Insta-Mold silicones are reinforced with the highest levels of hydrophobic (water repelling) organo-siloxane groups.
- Insta-Mold was worn by the first U.S. Gold Medallist in the U.S. Summer Olympics, Atlanta, Georgia, 1996.
- The Insta-Mold process is the only proven and accepted procedure published in the Archives of Otolaryngology. No other instant system can make this claim. Kasden, M.A., Robinson, M.D., "Fabrication of Custom-Made Ear Plugs for Swimming" Archive Otolaryngology, Volume 100, July 1974.
