Anyone know anywhere in Leeds that sells black liquid latex? Preferably the kind that can be painted onto the skin? Hoping I might be able to get some tomorrow before Wendy House.

I know the sex shop on Vicar is likely to sell liquid latex as that is where i got mine from, though that was in my first year :S. As I remember they usually had several colours including black, which is how i ended up with yellow as I went to buy some the day after valentine's day and it was all they had left.

I'd assume you paint it on your skin and it dries to look like standard latex

i believe latex is a liquid at production and it dries to a solid, rather than using a melting process to mold it.

That's about right tim, latex is found in the sap of certain plants (latex-rich sap often referred to as latex), and polymerises on contact with air, in effect making a 'scab'. Thin layers of latex will dry on their own, formic acid is used to polymerise an entire vat of latex, which is then cold-pressed dry and and either heat and pressure formed or extruded to produce 'rubber' products. The name rubber coming from one of the first people in britain to recieve a sample of solidified latex noting that it was very good at rubbing out pencil marks...

Incidentally the opium in opium poppies is produced by extracting latex from the poppies....

Even more disturbuing is how I know this: At some point when I was very young, I got my hands on what I now realise must have been a rather old book that followed the day of a girl working on a rubber plantation, alternating between the interesing bits of science and process and the much less interesing 'story' which I now understand to be propaganda about how it's acceptable to have something that ammounted to child slavery in all but name as long as it was somwhere picturesque and tropical..... It makes noddy look quite innocent.

Of course the phenomenom of Alex being sensible is as rare as Ben being clever, thoughtful and witty.

I'm guessing you mean talced? To be fair, that only works for latex clothes, if you're painting it on you can't really talc, not only because it initially lacks a surface to talc, but also because then the bits of latex would fall off Sticking out tongue

Just thought I'd post for anyone else looking for latex goodness that the box-standard art latex with latex colourant in works fine for Wendy related stuff. I painted Gordon some tribal style bits on with a a few Wendy-houses ago. THe only problem is bits will start peeling a little towards the end of the night. So should you be covering any 'vital' areas with it I recommend an underlayer of body tape or suchlike, just in case.
