You could likewise attempt the BJB line of SC-92 paints/primer- I just used them on some restorations, and they worked great.

Your all-time bet for painting a latex mask or cowl is Plasti-Dip. Information technology bonds to the latex actually well and won't crack or peel if applied correctly. I would say that about latex Bat cowls and Bat armor are sprayed with Plasti-Dip. That'south probably not much help to you lot now, unless you can strip all the other paints off, down to the bare latex.

How do I get the acrylic paint off? Ive tried rinsing the mask with lather and water and some has come up off. Would it still piece of work if a little acrylic was withal on the mask?

I would think you lot would need to mix the latex with your acyrlic to become it to bail to the latex. I estimate it would depend on how flexible you need your piece to be. I just did a bunch of repainting of latex and mixed the $.99 acyrlic paint with liquid latex. I mixed nigh 70/30 with less paint. No problems. I sealed it with a matte sealer.

I repained over an existing layer of latex/paint.

Personally, I wouldn't use the crystal articulate to add gloss, though a light coat probably won't hurt anything (if you've already done it). With Plasti-Dip, you can vary how matte or sleeky information technology is past how close you lot spray it: close in volition result in a glossier terminate, farther out will make it more than matte. Once information technology's dried for a day or two, you tin wipe it down with Armor All (low sheen or glossy, depending on your preference).

I am glad you got a solution that worked. I thought I would postal service mine for other readers. I utilise a mixture of acrylic paint and an adhesive called Prosaide No-tac past ADM-Tronics. You can buy the adhesive from well-nigh professional make-upward suppliers. Y'all can add water to create washes or whatever of liqutex'south mixing mediums. Information technology drys to a non-mucilaginous and flexible finish. The agglutinative is white and drys clear, so you should mix your color first then mix in the adhesive.

Another way to paint latex is to mix your paints into rubber cement. Although for this blazon of affair, Plasti_dip is the way to go every bit Tom suggested. Spray fairly shut to the cowl so shiney armor all wipes should practice the rest.

I tried to remove the paint with rubbing alcohol and that sort of worked. It took off some pigment and nearly importantly the crystal clear. I've sprayed four coats of plasti dip onto my cowl (30min in between coats) and information technology has a leathery appearance. Information technology has some wrinkles but I think that is just how the latex is naturally in this particular cowl. I volition follow up in four hours with a unmarried glaze of crystal clear for polish and I will be done! Yay no more stickiness. Thank you everyone for the assistance!

When cleaning latex employ lacquer thinner, information technology opens the pours, and makes for a amend bond. Also cutting down your ratio on latex and pigment to 80% latex and 20% paint. Black is tricky, merely do some tests starting time to come across how they dry. If you can spray it through a heavy duty airbrush, like a paasche h or a cup gun after wiping it downward expert with lacquer thinner. Here are some photos of Dr. Doom gloves I made in latex with the same process just with metallics instead.
