Usage Instructions


Rigid (35 index)
Normal cases: use 10 to 12 ounces of Rigid per gallon of diluted fluid.

Difficult cases or extended stay cases: use at least 16 or more ounces per gallon of diluted fluid.

Special Circumstances:

  • If the body displays medium to severe discoloration of the face and hands, it is best to start with a mild solution to clear lividity then increase strength to desired firmness.
  • Use Water/Clot Guard when moderate to heavy clotting is anticipated or distribution seems to be poor.
  • Free Flo or Plasma Flo may be used as a co-injection if congealed or clotted blood is anticipated.

Other Considerations:

In hard water areas add 2 to 4 ounces per gallon of Water/Clot Guard.

Additional Uses:

Rigid is also effective as a co-injection to other embalming solutions to increase firmness as desired by the embalmer.

Frigid Rigid is wonderful to use if you are looking for a strong back bone in your solution. I enjoy the Firmness it provides during embalming and then even more firmness as the chemical does its job overnight. I've noticed that it does not gray out the bodies given its high index , which is quite pleasing.

Frigid Rigid ----> Guarenteed Firmness

I love the quick firming action I get when using Frigid Rigid. It provides an extra level of security when longterm preservation is desired.
