Great for my small business

Great for my small business
I use this stuff to sculpt onto pretty much everything for my small business: clay pots, canvases, recycled glass bottles, and more!Tips:1. Cracking...so you can't really prevent it. But there are east ways to fix it. For example, My process for sculpting faces is simple. I work in sections. First the nose. Then the eyebrows, cheeks, lips ect...make sure to smooth your seams with A WET PAINTBRUSH... I like to dip my brushed in water then wipe them off on a sponge.Now, let your project dry for at least two days in a low humidy area. In that time, Your project will most likely crack or separate at the seams. At this point, you should make a very thick paste with your clay and use a paintbrush to fill in the cracks and smooth it out as if you were using caulking.Let your project dehydrate completely before sanding, priming, painting and sealing.2. It's important to work in sections and smooth out any imperfections while the clay is still wet with a paint brush or sponge to prevent cracking or crumbling anywhere other than the seams around the sections.Working in sections also prevents other parts of your project becoming dry and clumpy before you can add any further details. You'll understand what I mean once you work with it more.3. To make your clay easier to work with...remove the block from the original package and place it in a zipper top bag. Now, and about a tablespoon of water. No more, and possibly less depending on how moist your clay arrives. Let the block sit with the bag sealed for at least an hour, drain any excess water then begin your project by taking pieces from the bag and reasaling it each time you go for a new piece. You will eventually find your preferred texture the more you get to know how to clay behaves.4. Painting and sealing....I can't stress enough how dry your clay needs to be to successfully create a project that will last. Don't rush it! No matter how dry the clay seems, I can assure you that there is still moisture in there! While your Paint might go on really nicely at first, it will most likely peel off a week later or even sooner if you place it outside because the moisture in the clay began to wick it's way to the surface.I recommend that you follow the steps above for fixing any cracks and then after two days of room temperature drying, place in your oven at 200°-250° for at least 2hours. More or less depending on how thick your project is. The point in this is to dehydrate the clay completely. Then, let cool in the oven. DO NOT TAKE IT OUT RIGHT AWAY! Wait until it's warm enough to take out then WHILE ITS STILL WARM/HOT...I REPEAT...WHILE ITS STILL WARM/HOT... spray/brush on a good sealing primer. Making sure to get in all the crevices! This will prevent the clay from absorbing any moisture out of the air. Trust me. Any bit of moisture will ruin your paint job in the long run. Add two to three coats of primer before painting.5. Sealing...seal small projects with deco art glaze and bigger outdoor project such as pots with Rust-Oleum crystal clear enamel.Hope this helps!

5.0 out of 5 stars Dries quickly very strong.
Reviewed in the United States on April 4, 2021
I gave the modeling clay itself and five stars because it is very strong and dries fast. And it needs no Baking. It just air dries even very thin work remains strong. It’s not for beginners because it dries fast you have to know what you’re doing to get the shape you want quickly. You can add water or missed it with water to keep it workable for longer. It will crack if you try to form it while it’s drying. It’s best to cover with damp cloth while trying to keep it from drying too fast if you’re in a warm dry environment. It is easy to work with straight out of the package but quickly becomes harder to work with Without constantly re-wetting it. The packaging is not adequate to keep the clay from drying while storing. It helps to put it in a Ziploc bag removing all the air when storing, Also when using it. Every time you take some to work with you must close and Ziploc bag to keep the rest from drying. The outcome of the modeling work with this Clay is great, if you can work fast, keep it moist and keep the rest of the clay sealed. The best modeling clay of course is not available in the US as far as I can tell. It’s available in India. And I always forget it’s name but it’s what everybody uses on YouTube modeling clay demonstrations. It’s in a green package. So if anyone knows of a way to get that in the US or knows some other brand that works like it does I would like to know about it.

Très facile pour une première fois, je ne connaissais pas, j'ai voulu faire des cadeaux pour la fête des grands-mères et je suis ravie du résultat ! Très facile à manipuler mais il ne faut pas la sortir trop longtemps avant de la travailler sinon elle commence à sécher un peu et fait des sortes de petits morceaux dur sur les bords mais franchement si on l'a travaille au fur et à mesure c'est génial ! J'ai laissé sécher les créations 2 ou 3 jours sur un meubles à plat pour que ça sèche bien à cœur. J'adore le rendu !
