As it's coming up to that time of year again, I thought I would treat myself to something from PVC U Like, I've opted for one of their Hazmat Playsuits in .25mm natural transparent PVC, I',m hoping it will be here in time for the festive period, I have new year's plans for it

I recently ordered a bunch of glass clear green stuff from them and it feels so good. Let me know how that suit works out. I'm thinking about getting one myself.

Hi Raincoatboy,

The Nuclear Playsuit I ordered arrived this morning and I love it already! The 250mic PVC is very soft and feels really nice. One unexpected joy of wearing the suit is the breathing tube in the hood, once you're zipped up in the suit you can take in the fantastic PVC aroma through your nose and exhale through the tube and after a while you'll have the suit emptied of air and the PVC is vacuumed to your skin from head to toe, what a great sensation!

Hi Raincoatboy,

The Nuclear suit you have bought 250micron that sounds good to me, as I wear rubber/plastic & faux leather in fact I have found a dressmaker that is going to make a double sided garment for me in the new year. Will get in touch again when I get the garment and tell you what it is like to wear.

That's exactly what I want one for. I want something completely enclosing me, even my feet and hands. What material do they have is 250 microns? The only color that comes to mind is orange. What model number is the suit? Got any pics.

Guys

The nuke suit can be found here http://pvc-u-like.com/proddetail.asp?prod=SU28 the thick natural material is code NAT2 and the last of the thick very rubbery orange is ORS2 you can buy the promotional suit in Orange here http://pvc-u-like.com/proddetail.asp?prod=SU33sbut be quick the suit in orange is discontinuing soon.

Happy new year everyone!

Let's hope the new year brings plenty of plastic surprises!

I can attest to that. In fact, all of their 200 micron glass clear materials are soft, rubbery, smooth, noisy and clingy- qualities I personally appreciate in PVC garments. The new PVC smell is delicious; I just wished it lasted longer! I love that rustling and squeaking sort of noise when a folded-up raincoat made from their 200 micron glass clear material (in any colour) is gently squeezed between fingers, and when the raincoat is unfolded from a tightly folded square 'parcel'. I find the noise arousing, for whatever reason. The rustling and squeaking sort of noise must have something to do with the clinginess and glossiness/smoothness of the material's surfaces, as I find that the matt and semi-transparent materials lack this noise characteristic.

Their Shiny Patent PVC materials are good, too: soft, clingy, smooth, rubbery and noisy.

Tell me about it. My glass clear green trench raincoat already has a very small tear hole under one of the armpits. Got a little rough with it a few days ago;)

Specialist PVC glue and a small piece of PVC of the identical material will patch up the damage nicely if it is only a small tear. 'Stormsure' brand of adhesive works a charm for PVC.
