Description

This modeling medium is designed for artists who need a smooth, buttery consistency without the drag of traditional oil clays. It is non-meltable and intended for manual hand-sculpting and tooling. The clay is suitable for educational environments, student workshops, and professional fine art studios creating masters for silicone molds.

Features

  • Non-drying and non-meltable
  • Sulphur-free, making it safe for platinum-cure silicone rubbers
  • High density of 1.65 g/cm³ provides a satisfying weight and resistance
  • Off-White color allows for clear observation of light and shadow
  • Can be worked over wood or metal armatures for life-sized studies

Instructions

Processing

  • Use the Soft (14A) version at room temperature (23°C).
  • For Medium (26A) or Hard (32A), warm the clay to 46°C to increase pliability; it will return to its original firmness upon cooling.

Smoothing

  • Use clay rakes for initial uniforming.
  • For fine smoothing, 99% Isopropyl Alcohol or Naphtha are recommended.
  • Avoid D-limonene if planning to mold with silicone.

Safety

  • Use in ventilated areas when applying solvents and avoid overheating to prevent burns.
  • Protect from UV and store in airtight wrap to prevent surface oxidation.
  • Clean tools with alcohol or Naphtha to prevent fabric staining.
