Latex vs Glatzan L for making bald caps

Just on the off-chance that anyone wanted to make their own bald cap, or was just curious, here is my comparison of using Latex as opposed to Glatzan L (a specialist product designed for making bald caps).

I will post up pictures of the new latex cap soon.

 Latex:

• A heck of a lot cheaper
• Peels off the head block so much easier.
• It's white when it's still wet as opposed to Glatzan L which is clear, making it easy to see when it's still wet.
• Takes less layers to make a sturdy bald cap (4-6 instead of around 7-8)
• More flexible once off the head block and so is harder to rip.

Glatzan L:

• Because it's more rigid, it doesn't spring back/shrink once taken off the head block.

It remains to be seen how the latex cap looks once applied, so I should maybe reserve complete judgement. Also most of the problems I had with Glatzan L involved the head block I use so that could have been a hindrance to its effectiveness. 

Nevertheless I definitely would recommend latex, especially for someone like me who's trying things out. It really is way cheaper and does a good job.
