Self made elastomer and elastomer coating #36

Hello! I bought a Digit from the official website, however, the elastomer coating of it was broken unluckily. It's no time to buy a new one, so I plan to make the elastomer and elastomer coating by myself.
I use the silicone as the elastomer, and the white silicone ink as the elastomer coating. At the same time, the Acrylic board is bought online.
The images of my elastomer and ealstomer coating are shown as follows:

And the captured tactile images are shown as follows:
selfmade_1
selfmade_3

It seems that the scatterings of the red and green lights on the images are not thorough enough. Is the problem the reflection property of the self-made coating?

I work for GelSight and I am happy to help you get a gel for your digit. And if you got something broken we can replace it. Can you please provide your contact information?

Thank you for your reply! I know the gel can be bought from GelSight official website, but I'm doing a tactile-related experiment now, it's too late to buy a new one.
