Metallic rubber test


Im working on a new project(s) that require some flexible metallic lookign things, and since I already know the deal with powder and urethane, i wanted to try something new in latex.

Below is a pic of latex cast outs i wanted to see how this stuff works.

Its plastidip aluminum with metalizer finisher on raw latex, all spray, flexible and doesnt rub off, the camera doesnt quite show how shiny and metallic this peice got, but ill be posting pics later with more items I am working up, but thought I would share.

Very nice! I wish my local hardware stores carried more than just black, white and red.

Re: Metallic rubber test


I bet it would look great if lightly dusted over black (while it's still wet)to get a "metal flake" look.
