To use it, first knead the clay to make it more workable. If it is very dry, dampen it slightly. Shape it to suit your project, using tools for fine detail. Leave it to dry at room temperature on a flat surface, away from direct sunlight or sources of intense heat. Once dry, sand lightly if needed and decorate with paints or sealants.

Tip: Store any unused clay in an airtight container to stop it drying out. If it hardens a little before you use it, add a splash of water and knead it to bring back the flexibility.

This DAS BLANCA modelling clay is an excellent choice for all kinds of creative projects, offering ease of use and a professional finish.
