How to quickly coat twill tape with a layer of latex


Handy to have in stock!

In this video, I show you how to quickly apply a layer of latex to twill tape. Without making a mess!

And why would you want to do that?

You can coat several pieces of twill tape with a layer of latex today, let them dry, sprinkle a little talcum powder over them, and then store them for later. That way, you’ll always have it ready to use whenever you need it!

What do you need?

  • Twill tape - preferably cotton, as the fibers will absorb the latex quickly.
  • Liquid latex or zipper glue (it's the same thing!).
  • Optionally, water if your liquid latex is too thick.
  • Clothesline, drying rack, or doorknob.

💡 Tip!

In principle, one layer of latex is enough. But if you want it thicker, apply the latex in thin layers and let each layer dry completely before applying the next.

This prevents drips and ensures even coverage.

For extra strength, you can apply multiple layers of latex.
