FAQs
Do I need to use dressing aid (lube) when wearing a zip-front latex jacket, or only for the sleeves?
Focus lubrication on the sleeves and the bust area. While the body of the jacket is easy to slip into, you must apply a small amount of silicone lube or talcum to the inside of the sleeves and across the bust line. This allows your arms and chest to slide in smoothly, preventing high friction that can stress the shoulder seams and tear the wrist cuffs.
How do I prevent metal zippers, snaps, or buckles on the coat from staining the latex?
Create a protective barrier during storage. Metal (brass, copper, etc.) causes irreversible chemical stains (usually brown or copper) upon contact with latex. Before storing, wrap all metal hardware (especially those touching the latex) tightly with acid-free tissue paper to prevent direct contact.
How can I smooth out minor wrinkles or creases that form on the jacket's body?
Use warmth and polish. Never fold the coat for storage. If creases occur, hang the coat and apply a liberal layer of silicone shiner. Gently heat the wrinkled areas with a low-heat hairdryer (held at least 15-20 cm away) to help the rubber relax and return to its smooth, taut shape.
What is the proper maintenance for the metal zippers, particularly the main closure?
Regular silicone oil application. The main zippers on jackets are often long and subject to stress. Apply a small amount of silicone oil (not dressing aid) directly to the zipper teeth regularly. This keeps the mechanism running smoothly and prevents the zipper from sticking or jamming.
