    Default I'm Alergic to latex, I need a good substitute!

    I've recently developed an allergy to latex, something that's required in my area, I've tried using baby wipes when taking it off to avoid irritation but it didn't do any good. I've tried acrylic and/or fabric paint and then latex on top and it still burned my skin and now I'm doing just paint but I'm having trouble finding something dark enough and with a durable texture, what do you guys recommend?

    That SUCKS! I am allergic to latex too but it isn't required that we use it at work. :/ I would try to go across state lines or something where it is not required. Even if you personally are not using it, being exposed to it in your environment will make your allergy me extreme and before you know it you will have aniphilactic reactions to it. People who say "Oh I am only slightly allergic" and continue to expose themselves are playing a risky game. My son's Dr was talking to me about this when we discovered he has food allergies. Just be careful and maybe get an epipen and always carry benadryl if you insist on working around latex.

    Traveling isn't really an option, I'll go to the next county but it takes me at least 2hrs and the customers are just regular Joe's who are generally crude and offensive. One of the other clubs sells their own little "latex" that's latex free and I'd really like to buy my own for when I'm working other clubs but I just can't figure out what it is and I'm hoping someone on here knows a good paint to use.
