Glued latex garments are made by gluing together pieces of sheet latex. This is the method used by most manufacturers.
[edit] Types of Glues for Latex
Two basic types of glue are usually used:
1) Organic solvent based
Various rubber cements can be used to glue sheets of latex together. Some brands are:
- Best Test Rubber Cement
- Bostik 3851
- Elmer's Rubber Cement
- Ross Rubber Cement
- Rema TipTop vulcanising solution
Rubber cements are usually thinned with heptane, a.k.a. Rubber Cement Thinner, which is used to prepare surfaces for gluing with the cement. (Bostik 6009 type 4 cleaner/thinners)
2) Water and ammonia based
Some brands are:
- Copydex
- Bostik Aquagrip 260 (now replaced by 218M Plustex)
- Blackstyle latexkleber
Bonds made with water/ammonia glues are said to deteriorate when exposed to water, although some people say the bonds are just as long-lasting as those made with organic solvent glues.
[edit] Gluing Technique
A good way to apply the glue to a latex sheet is to use a credit card and spread it out on both surfaces. Let it dry for about 15 minutes and then attach the two surfaces together. Go over the seam with a roller and it will finish the seam. Wait for the seam to cure for 24 hours before putting stress on the glued area.
