dred making

[TuaCathach]

Hi guys.. ok i'm going to attempt the terrible D dreads,,, i'm going to use latex for these and see how it goes. i know you guys are going to say that they will be heavy etc but i've covered that in my WIP thread..... i'm fully up to spead on the process of creating them.. what i'm not sure about is the type of latex to use.. any recommendations. I was givin the contact details for these guys RPM SUPPLIES based here in ireland in fact only down the road from me. as you can see from his products page he has different types of latex. Any help at all guys.

i would go for what they would consider mask latex...like rd407..1oo% natural latex will take a toll on your molds really quick
