A few weeks ago, I shared my leaky bellows problem and got some good advise. Here is the outcome of the story. I ordered the liquid latex from this German company. It¹s a good product and easy to apply. As they recommend, many thin layers are better than few thick layers. I can recommend the latex for a repair job, but it has a few disadvantages. It doesn¹t looks shiny and is sticky, nothing like the outside of the Linhof bellows. After applying the talcum powder (white), the bellows look really old and just plain ugly. I don¹t know if someone makes black talcum powder, but I¹d rather live without it than using it again. Also the outside of the bellows are made from smooth vinyl (or similar), and the latex doesn¹t adhere to that very well. As soon as a tiny bit peels of and you try to pull it, the whole string of latex comes of. Using a smaller brush than I did and getting the latex only into the pinholes would help but was too difficult for me. In the end, I ordered replacement bellows from Camera Bellows in Birmingham. I had the opportunity to go there to pick them up after sending in my own frames. What a neat company, and very nice people to deal with to. They showed me around offered some coffee and gave me the whole tour, showed me how bellows are made now and in 1895 when they made their first bellows. Highly recommended source! I opted not to go for the standard double-tapered design again. I believe that design to be the root cause of my premature bellows deterriation. It is needed if you want to leave the bellows on when the camera is folded together for transport or storage. But this is causing extra wear on the bellows. I think it¹s far better to take the bellows of before folding the camera. It¹s easy and fast to do. The new bellows have a simpler single-tapered design and should last longer than the original bellows. I should be fine for at least 20 more years, if not more. I would still recommend the latex for small repairs, but if the bellows are as far gone as mine were, a good replacement is the better option. I paid 85 GBP, Linhof wanted 600 Euros. Thanks for all the help. Regards Ralph W. Lambrecht http://www.darkroomagic.com
