  Can you please suggest a lacquer.

 
For acrylic: 
 
Dreve: NanoScreen Lacquer, Fotoplast Lacquer 3, Thermosoft Lacquer3
Egger: LP/H Lacquer, Egger Sonopal Lacquer
 
AFAIK lightningenterprise carries some of the Dreve, just shoot them an email. The rest can be obtained from any audiology clinic.

I have been sliently reading this thread for quite some time. Learnt a lot from you guys. Really appreciated all the ideas you guys shared.
Below are some of the iems I made from early 2014 till last week. These are the good ones, and there are also a lot of bad ones end up in the trash. But I enjoyed a lot of the process of making IEM. 

Great job I like the universals! !!!

Yep but I think they require someone from that industry to be able to buy it.....

[@]ilikeiem but it isn't open for the public to purchase though..... There seem to be a need to be in the industry in order to make a purchase

Egger is easier to buy. I use all egger material. Good quality.

I had a chance to Reshell a pair of AAW reshelled Jh5. Then I made a mould out of their universal and now I can have many. I think they copied the UM universal as well.

May I know if mmcx can be used in silicone shells? Would it be able to be stuck tightly and not fall out during cable removal?

I think that would be challenging to say the least. The force needed to detach MMCX cables can be significant. Perhaps if you make the IEM with a solid core of some rigid material and imbed this in silicone you could anchor the MMCX connector that way. You can probably come up with a way to do it if you try enough times and spend a lot of time thinking and planning. You just have to decide if using the MMCX is worth the trouble.
