'Permanent' pantyhose encasement experiment gone wrong

[Tinker D]

We have something called "Second Skin" that is sold as a way to close the skin like that of a Band-Aid.

Tru that.

BTW, if someone knows where to find one (NL, BE, DE), please let me know. I need it mostly for medical purposes, but you know, you never know ... 😉

Hospital supplies?

New Skin.. That's what it's called. On ebay, USA (3 PACK New Skin Liquid Bandage Spray First Aid bug out bag)...

eBay: New Skin liquid bandage spray

Just spray it on and put on your nylons. It just mite work.

Something intended for Irish dancers

Search eBay UK: sock glue Irish dancing

Japanese schoolgirls use a similar product to keep their socks half-way up in a manga-esque fashion.

The short story 'Liquid Latex Error' by 'Permalatex' is perhaps somewhat related to this topic too:

Btw, the actor in question was Buddy "Uncle Jed Clampett" Ebsen

How will the glue affect your sweating?

Yep, that reminds me the old story when a boy was painted with gold for a celebration and then died because the skin pores were blocked.

There was the actor of the robot in Wizard of Oz, who was covered with silver paint and nearly died - or perhaps even died in hospital, I am not sure. His successor had no trouble at all. In Goldfinger (James Bond), a girl is killed by being gold-plated. The actress was entirely covered in gold-paint, except for a small patch of skin - for safety reasons. Today, we know better, skin does not breathe, it doesn't play any role in oxygen supply. The actor in Wizard of Oz probably had a strong allergic reaction, even leaving a patch of skin free from paint wouldn't have saved him. Mythbusters have made an entertaining episode about this myth, can be found on youtube.

I've always wanted to get in several layers of encasement and then coat my whole body in liquid latex...now that sounds amazing.
