I will have to check with our manufacturer to see if it's rated food grade. Due to its handling I doubt that it is. The foam itself is nontoxic.

I never tried to see if it would stick to any kind of Styrofoam or polystyrene. It very well might, it seems to stick well to just about everything. I just never tried that or had a reason to need it for that.

I don't believe it is food grade...it is rated 'therapeutic' grade. If it were food grade I think that would be clearly marked on the bottle info.'

The FDA does not really clear any finishing product as "food safe" anymore. They do however label products as non-toxic or safe for "casual contact" with food. According to my research, almost any SEALANT produced in the US once fully and properly cured is considered food safe/non-toxic for causal food contact.

I'm sorry but I have no idea. I never received this item because it's FDA not approved.

The mold was bought for wax and soap molds and has never been used to bake or make food. So, no I do not know if it's FDA approved food grade silicone. It did not need to be for my purposes.

The last time I checked it was FDA approved. It has been a real blessing for me as my body is very sluggish, and this works beautifully.

The label reads "For External Use Only". It is possible the inactive ingredients may be toxic. Unless you get the full ingredient list and are a pharmacist or chemist with a medical or veterinary background I would not put this in your mouth.

Styrofoam is tricky. I would try a sample piece. If it does melt the styrene you can try using some epoxamite, it is a laminating epoxy that we have used as a clear cloat for styrofaom I light coat of that if you have a lot of detail should protect the styrofaom from the easy clear. The epomamite is Smooth On Product.

The product is made in an FDA approved facility. It does not mean this product is FDA-approved.

I cannot speak for the company, or much more about the product itself, besides what is on the label. There is the statement about the FDA not evaluating the claims, so no, it is not FDA approved. And there is also nothing about GMP. It's just saying no GMOs, no fillers, no preservatives, or artificial colors. Hope this helps!

I hope I am allowed enough space to answer, sorry it took so long. I contacted the company and this is a short version of their answer. The product is now USDA organic approved, they are in the process of flushing out old labels that dont have the seal of USDA. The product is good one year after purchase, but they say 6 months due to the possible shelf life in Amazon warehouse. If the product not good after 6 months they will replace. The product must be stored away from light and heat. This is a paraphrased version sent to me from Perfect Harmony. Dont hold me responsible if my version is not as exact as their response to me. You can contact them on Amazon for any questions, just click on The Perfect Harmony Store as it shows when you see the product. Their response was VERY prompt to my question, hope this helps.

I'm not sure, but I don't think so. There is "isopor" in portuguese, Google translated as "Styrofoam". It's a kind of a foam, probably without latex.

I know, right! I don't think she has a clue! Well, I'm thinking that if it's safe to sell it in 49 other states, then it can't be all that bad. I have the merchandise right here and the tag reads that everything is BPA free and does not contain Polycarbonate or Epoxy. So.... I am still clueless about the Prop warning, but the actual product seems to be safe to use. Hope this helps! It will be interesting how they respond to you! Hopefully, it will be a different customer service rep!

Well, I'm not a doctor, but I'm guessing that the tag makes reference to the fill material, which is little polystyrene (Styrofoam) pellets. I imagine that as long as no one EATS the pellets, there will be no danger. Incidentally, if you look around your house, you'll probably be able to find several products that California warns against for various reasons; including such warnings is a legal requirement in order to sell products in the state of California. In short, it's nothing to worry about.
