PVC/Latex adhesives

Posted by Zavora on: Jan 23rd 2018 9:52:24 pm

Is there a way to adhere the back (non-shiny) side of 4-way stretch PVC to latex? Or the non -shiny side to the shiny side without sewing? I know PVC can be sewn to itself but not to latex and the adhesive sold at MJ only bonds the shiny sides of PVC together, or latex to latex. I'm really just not a fan of sewing and would rather glue.

You could try to rubberize the backside of the pvc fabric.  You'll want to use the ammonia based adhesive and apply 2-3 coats where you want to join the latex sheeting.  Let each coat dry completely before applying another.

This will essentially create a strip of rubber on the backside of the vinyl that you can then glue the latex sheeting to using standard gluing methods.
