Thread: Liquid Latex Question ...

Tweet

OK I have been using the brand "Mold Builder" Liquid Latex for all my corpses, but when you only can buy the small jars it can get quite expensive. I want to continue to use liquid latex (but be able to buy it in bulk gallon containers) instead of Carpet adhesive but want to know what different types there are out there that would work for corpsing with cotton technique. I have always used my fingers to dab in the latex and work into the cotton and would like to continue this method. The latex I use peels off skin easily so question is, what types/brands would I NOT be able to do this with? I don't want my hands to bubble and turn into a toxic mess if I touch it. So anyone who uses latex for molds or anything else can you tell me what kind you use, where you buy it and if it is safe to handle? THX

Screamline Studios sells a great liquid latex. 1 gallon allows me enough to do 3 full buckies with a little left over (Thats applying 2 coats).

I have never had a bad thing to say about their product. It cures quickly and is durable.

Thx Nick... what I would also like to know is can you apply with and get on your fingers and hands and also what are the listed ingredients on it... the one I have says Ammonia, 100% Natural latex, water...it say no eye and skin contact but it has been fine on the skin and dont intend to get it in my eye! lol

I've been using one called 'MoldCraft' latex and have had no problems on bare skin. I buy it in gallon jugs. Locally available here, but not sure about the US.

I use mold builder also and buy it by the gallon from Delvie's plastics. Still not cheap but it's what I use.
