  2. Boil a pot of water big enough for your item.
  3. Put the item in the boiling water and swirl it around with the tongs.
  4. Boil for 30 seconds to one minute depending on the size of the item.

How do you Unstretch a silicone case?

What is silicone melting point?

Silicone rubber is generally non-reactive, stable, and resistant to extreme environments and temperatures from -67 °F to 572 °F (-55 °C to 300 °C). The melting point of silicone is 2,577°F (1,414°C).

Can you heat silicone molds?

Can You Microwave Silicone? Silicone molds are microwave-safe, freezer-safe, and oven-safe. In 1979, the FDA deemed silicone safe to be used for cooking and everyday usage. Temperature changes will not cause food-grade silicone to leach into foods, despite common consumer concerns.
