Subject: [Puptcrit] Neoprene again!


Hi, couldn't let a month go by without another neoprene question :)

We have always used #501 for heads and hands.  For heads, it's been 
great, but not so great for hands as the fingers tend to snap off, 
especially in the colder months.  Has anyone tried the other, less 
rigid neoprene compounds, i.e. #531 and/or #613?  (Jim Gamble, I think 
you were experimenting, yes?)  I've used straight latex for hands in 
the past, but didn't like how it didn't hold paint very well, and also 
didn't like how it broke down after awhile.  Do the #531 and #613 hold 
paint?  What's the "flex" like?

Any input greatly appreciated!
