ABSTRACT:
A method for making a perforated silicone gel layer includes providing a perforation device having a generally planar surface with a plurality of discrete perforating elements extending therefrom, placing a layer of uncured silicone gel on the planar surface of the perforation device with the perforating elements extending through the silicone gel layer, and peeling the silicone gel layer away from the perforation device when at least a surface of the silicone gel layer adjacent the planar surface has at least partially cured.
