What balloons you need for balloon folding ?

I always use 260Q balloons, because the are firm and have a nice lenght.
In the shop there are often cheap balloons. Do not buy them because they always pop.
On the shopping page of my website there is a shop i have good results.


Below a short explain of the used numbers and letters. 260Q= 2-60-Q

- The first number is the thickness of the balloon. Number 2 is a good number to work with.
A thinner balloon will popping faster and a thicker balloon is difficult to twist.

- The second and the third number is the length of the balloon.
example: On a 260Q :number 60. If you blew up this balloon it's 60 inches /152,4 cm.
60 inches is the most used size of balloonfigures.

- The last letter tells us which fabric the balloon is made.
 Ik used in the example a Q=Qualatex.
other letters are:

S=sempertex of suzukilatex P=prestige, N=neolatex G=granger T=tilly B=bettalatex
