Toirtis Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 OK, this is a weird one. I found a funky pattern online that I desperately want to tie. The main ingredient is strips of chartreuse rubber gloves...the sort used for doing dishes, etc. Problem is, I can find gloves only in varying shades of yellow. If anyone spots chartreuse gloves out there (WalMart, CanTire, dollar stores, etc), please let me know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonAndersen Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Toirtis, Medical supply stores carry a broad selection of gloves in various colors. Or The stuff maybe another latex product. Make sure you get the one w/o lubricant - the fish fall off. Don Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaffer Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 The green gloves are made of Nitrile. If you are looking for them they usually have then at Princess Auto.They are used commonly for chemical handling. If you cant find them let me know. I may beable to give you some depending on what thickness you need. Link to pattern? Andrew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly, too thin for my use...I have lots of those at home already. The stuff maybe another latex product. Make sure you get the one w/o lubricant - the fish fall off.

I think those might be a tad thick...I really need the sort used for dishes, cleaning about the house, etc. If you cant find them let me know.

DonAndersen Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Toirtis, Yupe - get it @ the Medical Supply Store. It's like dental dam is used for stretching exercises. I've got it in various thicknesses for the "bottle" style of rod varnishing. The local shop has it in rolls of various colors including an obnoxious green. It does have a powder on the surface to protect it from Ozone. Typically the powder is talc. regards, Don Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DougC Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 If you have no luck finding the gloves, most fly shops have or can get in strips of latex sheeting for you. Hareline "nymph stretch skin" comes in chartreuse. http://castersonlineflyshop.com/index.php?...roducts_id=1806 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
