Waterproof coating for skin side

Recommended Posts

Hi

 

I want to make a wet formed pouch for air rifle pellets, which needs to be proofed on the inside. Firstly to stop the pellets picking up bits of leather, but more importantly to prevent the pellet lube from being rubbed off on the inside of the pouch.

Would liquid latex be any good, or is there a better product / process available?

Thanks in advance.

You could use Resolene, I use it on the inside of sheaths. If you want a really heavy duty coating, you could paint the flesh side with rubber contact cement and let it dry completely.

Thanks Martyn. I have resolene, so will try that first.

Hi Bonecross. Would you heat the beeswax after rubbing it in?

I've done it cold and it worked, the rubbing action sort of melts it. So heating is not necessary, rub it in good with your fingers :)
