Tinting Foam Latex
Was curious if any of you used something to tint your foam other then the pre-made paints sold online? also what chemicals are released when baking the foam latex and i realized the the excess that's been left in the bowl has a very unpleasant odor to it the next day, i was curious because i find the science behind it so fascinating.
Thank You,

Concentrated pigments that are designed to work with the foam are best. I believe they are acrylic-based. I've not played around with too many options in this area.
The foaming agent, gelling agent, and curing agent all have their own smells, as does the latex base.
If you go to the Monster Makers foam page there are links to the material data sheet for each component that will give you a bit more information about them.
