Try contacting the manufacturer yourself, if possible.

How was your mattress before the topper?

If it was firm and you got the 1" latex to soften it, I doubt 1" would be enough.

My guess is that your mattress is too soft to begin with and that is your problem.

16-18ILD Dunlop is more like a 24ILD Talalay and less springy.

No topper will fix a too-soft mattress or mattress with a dip in it. It could be that your mattress is just too soft. What ILD is the Talalay 1"?

Jim  my mattress is only 9 months old,  just very very little plush to it, so i was trying to take the pain off my pressure points area's,  the 1 inch from RMM is 24 ILD talalay
