How to glue latex seams
-
Cut the pieces Cut the required pieces from the latex sheet with a rotary cutter or scissors. Keep the edges clean and even.
-
Clean the bonding surfaces Degrease both surfaces thoroughly with a lint-free cloth and lighter fluid or isopropyl alcohol.
-
Apply latex adhesive to both sides Spread a thin, even layer of vulcanising latex adhesive over both surfaces with a spatula.
-
Join the pieces and roll the seam Position the pieces without tension, starting at one side. Close the seam step by step with even pressure.
-
Inspect the seam Check the seam for even contact. If small areas have lifted, apply adhesive to those spots.
