(rough side clean and up) trowl a layer of glue on it. let dry. place "easy release" (blue or purple) masking tape over the glued surface. use a ruler and make lines. cut the strips, which are now ready to apply and not sticky wet noodles. just peel slowly as you work.

Search the forums for " The best way to fold a hem seam" It still sounds like a lot of work but should produce good results. You'll have to post a photo of your completed work.

It's a real PITA.

I had the day off yesterday and started working. So far so good and I'm happy with the results. So is Funky, especially since I began her working on her specific request. I know what you mean about too many projects.

Here is a link to the group I was talking about: http://community.livejournal.com/latexcrafters/ I haven't ordered anything yet, there are a few other projects to finish first :) Tue, 10 Apr 2007 21:42:02 GMT http://latexrubber.tribe.net/thread/6248c03d-c209-4dc0-82cd-4c7228500323#b0d27d11-6add-441e-854b-60d5fa0ba561 Latextured© 2007-04-10T21:42:02Z http://latexrubber.tribe.net/thread/6248c03d-c209-4dc0-82cd-4c7228500323#41f594ef-db65-486c-bcbf-43d07197bd8b This would be great for the hard to find colors too. I know that 4D has the color of purple I really like but its in pearlsheen and Im hoping to find that same color but not in anything transparent or pearlsheen.

Here is Rubberdino's email link. rubberdino@rubberist.net or dinodgk44@yahoo.com Here is a link to a US distributor http://www.mjtrends.com/categories-.30mm,Latex-Sheeting with reasonable pricing I'm still wading through all the stuff on IAR's site. I'll let you know if I learn more that means anything.

So far no luck. I searched through RP too but didn't find it. Hopefully one of the other rubber tribers will know what I'm talking about. Anyway, thanks Raul!

I *think* these folks are mostly on the west coast. Does this sound familiar? Can anyone point me in the right direction?
