I've been using latex, rather than wax, as a resist. The only =
difficulty I'm having is getting the latex to flow smoothly. Is there =
any type of medium that I can add to the latex that will thin it down a =
bit without compromising the integrity of the latex? I use dishwashing =
soap to clean the residue from the brush. It works great, but don't =
think it would be a good idea to add it to the gel for thinning purposes =
since it causes the residue to dissolve.
Thankyou
