Take your costume to the next level
Liquid latex is a key material for special effects (SFX), cosplay, and LARP. While small bottles are enough for minor scars and blending edges, this one-liter pack lets you dive into truly massive projects.
It is the community-proven choice for the final coating of foam LARP weapons, shields, and armor, creating a durable and flexible layer. It also works perfectly for making full masks, extensive wounds, or casting molds.
What can you do with liquid latex?
- LARP coating: The community swears by this latex for the final finish of foam weapons, shields, and armor parts. It creates a durable, flexible, and easily paintable layer that protects the weapon's core and gives it a realistic look.
- Molds and casting: Want to duplicate an amulet or create your own series of props? Latex is a classic material for making negative molds. Apply it layer by layer to create a "peel-off" mold that captures even the finest details.
- Epic SFX Make-up: With a whole liter, you don't have to limit yourself to one scar. Create entire zombified bodies, extensive burns, or gruesome mutations (shoutout to all The Last of Us fans). Mix it with bits of cotton or tissues to create hideously realistic textures.
- Creating wounds: Combine it with a bit of cotton or a torn paper tissue to create a gruesome texture of torn skin, burns, or blisters in no time. Add some fake blood and watch people jump back.
- Gluing and Blending: The perfect way to mask the edges of store-bought horns, elf ears, or other rubber accessories. The latex beautifully "dissolves" the edges into your skin.
- Aging effect: Apply thin layers and "wrinkle" them (e.g., by furrowing your brow) to easily create deep, realistic wrinkles.
Latex color
Once dry, this latex is almost completely transparent in thin layers. As the thickness increases, it takes on a slight skin-tone or ochre hue. The base color does not affect any subsequent makeup application or painting.A few practical tips
- Yes, it smells. To be clear: this is liquid rubber stabilized with ammonia. The smell is normal and a sign that the latex hasn't gone bad. Once it dries, the smell disappears completely. Work in a well-ventilated room unless you're a fan of specific aromas.
- Watch out for allergies! Latex is a strong allergen. Before you slap it on your face or hands, do a quick test. Apply a small amount to sensitive skin (like the inside of your forearm) and wait a few hours. If the spot doesn't turn red, you're good to go.
- Application: Apply the latex in thin layers. Always let one layer dry thoroughly before adding the next. You can use a hair dryer on the cool setting to speed things up. Latex dries in approximately four hours at room temperature; it shrinks by about 1 cm while drying.
- Removal? Peel it off carefully. Latex works a bit like a waxing strip. If you apply it to areas with hair (eyebrows, beard, sideburns, hair), always coat them thoroughly with petroleum jelly or another greasy cream beforehand. Otherwise, you will regret it. Deeply. You can easily wash off any residue with warm water and soap.

I've been using liquid latex from imago for several years now and I'm very satisfied.
Every order arrives within a few days, so I can keep on creating. I specifically use it for making masks for SFX makeup.
Tekutý latex z fantasyobchodu využívám již několik let a jsem velmi spokojená.
Každá obědnávka dorazí běhěm pár dní a já můžu neustále tvořit. Konkrétně ho využívám na výrobu masek na SFX makeup
We used this latex for the very first masks we ever made, and even without any great artistic talent, we achieved a great result :-)
Použili jsme tento latex při výrobě vůbec prvních masek co jsme dělali a i bez nějakého velkého uměleckého cítění jsme došli k dobrému výsledku :-)
I can't complain! I haven't found latex at such a great price anywhere else. Does it smell? Well, yes, it smells until it dries, but that's what happens when there's ammonia in it – it's survivable. :D
Tip: You can thicken it with flour and color it with acrylic paints. I made an "underground creature" mask out of it and inhaled quite a bit of that ammonia (used 2 liters of latex), so ventilate well and latex away – it's hard to find anything better!
Nemůžu si stěžovat! Latex za tak krásnou cenu jsem snad nikde jinde nenašel. Že smrdí... No ano, smrdí, než uschne, ale to už tak bývá, když je v něčem čpavek. - dá se přežít. :D
Tip: dá se zahustit moukou, a obarvit akrylovýma barvama. Dělal jsem z něj masku "podzemního tvora" a toho čpavku sem se dost nadýchal, (2 litry latexu padly), takže vesele větrejte a latexujte, lepší je jen těžko k sehnání!
I bought this latex to mask wires (adding bulk to trunks and branches) for miniature wargaming trees. I picked up the tip from a video where they used Woodland Scenics latex, which is half the size and twice the price.
The photo shows it just after application. I'll likely need at least 2 coats to fully cover the wires (the latex shrank a little). I plan to paint or spray it brown afterwards.
Overall, I'm very happy with the purchase. The product does exactly what I expected.
With the window open, I barely smelled the ammonia, just for the first 10 seconds before my nose got used to it. Once dry, it smells just like disposable latex gloves.
Latex jsem zakoupil na maskování drátků (přidání hmoty na kmínek a větve) na miniaturní stromy do wargamingu. Okoukal jsem to na jednom videu kde používají latex od Woodland Scenics který je o polovinu menší a 2x tak drahý.
Na fotografii těsně po nanesení. Asi bude potřeba nanést minimálně 2 vrstvy aby drátky byly úplně zakryté (latex se maličko smrštil). Následně plánuji namalovat / přestříkat hnědou barvou.
Celkově jsem s nákupem moc spokojený. Zboží splňuje přesně to co jsem od něj očekával.
Při otevřeném okně jsem čpavek skoro necítil, jen prvních 10 vteřin než si nos trošku zvykne. Po zaschnutí je cítit jako jednorázové (latexové) rukavice.
The best latex on the Czech market at a great price. I use it for finishing weapons; it holds just as well as duct tape but looks way better.
Nejlepší latex na českém trhu a za parádní cenu. Já ho používám na povrchovou úpravu zbraní a drží stejně dobře jako kobercovka a je to esteticky lepší.
Apply thin layers, otherwise a crust will form on the surface and the latex won't dry properly. The photo shows green slime for a DnD map - I created the bubbles on purpose by injecting air into the wet latex with a syringe. It has specific uses for DnD; besides slime, I also used it to make the contents of a witch's cauldron.
Je potřeba dělat slabé vrstvy, jinak se na povrchu vytvoří krusta a latex nezaschne správně. Na fotce je zelený sliz pro jednu DnD mapu - bubliny jsem dělal cíleně (vzduch injekční stříkačkou do nezaschnutého latexu). Pro DnD to má specifické užití, mimo slizu jsem tím také dělal obsah kotlíku ježibaby
I bought the latex for my Halloween masks. It was my first time working with it, but I really enjoyed it and I'm happy with the result. Though, I could only stand wearing the mask for a few hours, and taking it off wasn't exactly pleasant :D...
Latex jsem si pořídila kvůli maskám na halloween. Pracovala jsem s ním poprvé, ale moc mě to bavilo a výsledek mě taky potěšil. Jen v masce šlo vydržet jen pár hodin a sundavání nebylo nejpříjemnější :D...
