Sadly there isn’t any material that I have found that will heal up your sticks. If it’s a silicone skin, you could try to clean it with acetone and then use sil-poxy, but I’ve only have some small success. Wish I had a better answer for you.
Something to consider as an alternative to mesh is the non-sticky fiberglass tape for dry wall repair. It’s all I use now. I’ll take a punch or make a round hole with my Exacto knife at the very end(s) of the silicone tear. That hole does wonders to prevent any additional tearing and, along with the fiberglass tape/Silpoxy, this makes the tear nearly impossible to tear again.
Thanks for a great video and great advice David. Can you please tell me what type of adhesive you would use to re-anchor some magnetic tabs, into the recessed sections of a "Kyoto Kagaku" brand "Eye examination Manikin". Unfortunately the rear of their silicon sponge feeling head is supposed to attach using magnetic relocation tabs which have pulled away. I'm very handy with fixing things, but thought I'd consult an expert regarding the best adhesive to use. Thanks for your great videos and really helpful advice.
I’m not familiar with the model. Go ahead and send me a message through any of the social media platforms and I’ll see if we can come up with a good solution.
Yes let’s see the next section. Great content! By the way, is there a reason you don’t use gloves? Does nitrile or pvc gloves interact chemically with the materials?
Thank you so much. No. No real reason. To be honest, I’m sure I should so thank you for keeping me honest! I’ll add doing a trim and beauty coat on the arm, to the list of episode. Thanks again for the comment.
It should be this mesh. I’m still looking for the “right mesh” and this isn’t it, but it’s close. Let me know if you find something better, but this is pretty good. a.co/d/ddJahH5
What can you use to seal up IV sticks on a IV hand trainer. Is there a certain material that works well? Thanks for all your great videos

Thank you for posting this! Who would have thought of this. Awesome tip. Thank you.

Terrific video David!
Thank you so much. More to come!
Great video! Enjoying the new background as well.
Well sir, you better. Your the reason #causeirespectyouandyourknowledge
Good stuff! Seaming and patching is an art form in itself on the SFX side. Lucky most of us here are not dealing with movie level patch work 😅
Yeah I want that to be a future episode. There are a few patchers and seamers that are just pure magicians!
I have a tear on the flap covering the power button. If I ever have time, Ill try this for sure.
Which manikin?

What is the larger weave mesh you are using? I've used powermesh but I'm not familiar with the one with the larger holes. Thanks!
