Happy Friday, Geeks! Today I'll be showing you how to repair a torn urethane Batman cowl with a few easy steps! This method will also give the cowl added strength! Enjoy! John Ninco: / nincocreations
Quite impressed how well that came out. But I loved the idea of the Impostor Joker Cowl, but rather than a custom collectable, I think a full Impostor cosplay would be amazing and yet another Batman costume in your collection.
Nice work! If you know where it is you can see it but BARELY. It seems like the best idea is to reinforce the corners before anything happens. You could use this same method on the inside as well. That aside, has anyone ever tried making a silicone cowl?
Nice repair. Could you, theoretically, use the silkaflex to reinforce parts of the mask that would be prone to tearing, the the linings off the eyes and mouth opening?
Should make it a standard upgrade on cowls to reinforce both sides with flextape... those sharp corners are always gonna be a failure point... But good work!
i like the lycra idea for added backing i would do that to all the parts that take the extra beating to begin with to prevent that in the future honestly i may do that to my latex mask as well
Dave Munn was it the DOJ gauntlets with the removable fins ? Did it rip at the part where the fins go in ? I got gauntlets from him too and the ripped also
Just a funny thought, you'd probably never actually do it, but with your current hair and stubble you look strikingly similar to last Oliver Queen in last season's flashbacks, with the long messy hair and stubble XD Just a thought. Keep up the awesome work man, love your vids :)
chris have you seen that stuff called blue stuff,you can use it to make small molds 10 times quicker and cheaper than the standard resin and other ways and its reuseable,its made by greenstuff world
FUEGO City if you did that it would be hard to put on, you need it to flex if you will be using it. If it's just for display then plastidip is a good idea
Nice video and good job man! if i have that mask, i could wear it all day...to eat, to sleep, to get drunk (as now! haha)...oh jeez, oh man! so many things i could do....
I have a question. So I have a Dark Knight cowl that has a large tear in the back. However I got it 4 years ago and I cannot remember if it is urethane or latex, or if there is any difference. Will this method work regardless? Thanks.
Gday chris'o ... have been realy enjoing ur content since i found ur channel. Im gathing materials for a sabine wren costume (SW rebels) and it seems i cant buy barge cement in AU, was wondering if u could recommend what brand u use for EVA foam glue please, cheers lad
Does anyone else wonder if he's in to doctor who think it would be cool if he did a custom collectable on it like a destroyer cyberman or dalek (Sorry Britishness coming through here)
Is there a way to repair the edges of a rubber or silicone that have become "rough"? The best way to describe what is looks like is a mouse nibbled on them.
Depending on where the damage is you can sand it CAREFULLY. Start with a fairly aggressive coarse glass paper like a 400 and eventually work up to a 1000 and feather in the rough edges as best as you can. Just be aware the paper will clog up fairly fast on very soft materials!
