A fellow Haunter asked me for any tips I had in regards to restoring aging latex Halloween props. The cracks and dryness...the broken edges...the flakes.
I never really used latex in my props, but I know the horror of finding our old rubber masks in a box my mother jammed into her attic after one hot summer season... it was like when Donald Sutherland's character in Invasion of the Body Snatchers feels the love of his life crumble under his fingertips as he hugs her.
Does anyone have any pointers/tips for how to extend the life of latex props...or how to repair them once aging has set in?
