that leads me to think that whatever glue they're using for those seams isn't latex-based, which… why the fuck.

anyway, yeah. you can do liquid latex in some moulds to make latex studs (complete with pigments to make them black or metallic or whatever) and then the rubber cement to stick them on to the collar.

@foxyloon @KayOhtie

rubber cement can use latex (any elastic polymer will do), but doesn't have to be. if you know it's specifically latex, you can use it here too. but it's not the same thing as liquid latex, which is commonly used for body-sculpting (e.g. Star Trek aliens).

@KayOhtie @foxyloon

so… usually liquid latex is a mixture of latex, water, and a small amount of ammonia (which is where the smell comes from). once the water evaporates, that's it; it's a solid piece of latex. so if you use it to attach a latex thing to another latex thing, it is effectively a single continuous piece of latex.

this is similar to why you don't use silicone-based lube with silicone toys: once the solvent's gone, that silicone is now part of the toy.

@KayOhtie

you can also use the liquid latex as a glue to join latex stud to latex collar, and once it all cures it's a single piece, so you'd have to do real mechanical work to separate them after that.
