layering/zoning multiple pieces of latex
I have a 6" slab of firm latex, from disassembling an old mattress; I've asked what to do in another thread. The suggestion I like most is to buy 1" of a soft Talalay latex topper from FBM and start with that. Maybe I'll love it. If not, I could double it up and see if I'd prefer 2" and then buy another 1" of it, or 1" of something firmer. If the latter, I could zone, making a firmer topper under my butt; this has been suggested for a male side-sleeper, with wider shoulders than butt, and need for good back support. All this sounds intriguing, but I'm starting to wonder if all these piece of foam will play together nicely. If I end up wanting two pieces of 1" latex foam (both soft, or soft+medium), and both are the full size of my bed, then I imagine I can just lay them on top of each other, with my mattress pad (with elastic skirts that pull over each corner of the entire assembly including my 6" base), and it'll be fine. But what if I want to zone - so that two separate pieces of foam are on the same layer ? I worry that a crack would develop between the two. Is the answer to glue stuff toegther somehow, or what ? Thanks for advice. |
