Cold Foam Latex

[CookFX Productions]

Anyone know where the best/ Cheapest place or most reasonable place on the net to get latex, and cold foam latex kits from? Anyone? anyone?

Here's where alot of locals buy it:
http://makeupkits.com/

And here is where the big studios order it from.
http://www.burmanfoam.com/

Cut out the middle man.

(But, in defense of the middleman, they do have a decent store if you need something now and want to walk in and pick it up.)

also, keep in mind that "Cold Foam" is not latex, has to be mixed exactly, and that's not just so it works, but so it's safe for the skin. Agreed that foam latex isnt the easiest stuff for the amatuer to handle, but cold foam isnt an exact replacement.

Oh i know cold foam is harder to work with than liquid latex. I'm actually going to be taught how to use it, but im going to more or less be watching the process this time. My i guess little production crew does have a good little special effects section, my cousin worked for several big theater groups and is great with latex, and makeup. And I'm just seeing if anyone knew a better place to get it that i did.

That's not actually what I said. I said that Foam latex is hard to work with thereby inferring that Cold Foam is easier, but I gave a warning about Cold Foam that it must be mixed exactly or it is harmful to skin. It is not actually meant for skin applications, but can be used for such, I guess.

What places do you know of? I know of a couple.
