Plaster Cloth Wrap Signature 10cm x 4.6m

• 1kg.
• Designed for casting, moulding and sculpting.

• For mixing, we suggest approximately 1 part water to 2 parts plaster, however this will vary with temperature of water used and prevailing weather conditions.
• Never use bare hands to mix or stir plaster.
• Water should always be added to the mixing tray first then sprinkle or sift plaster into the water in small quantities and gently mix with spatula. Tap sides to vibrate and release air bubbles. When mixture is a smooth, even consistency and a uniform light grey colour it is ready to pour into mould.

Handy Hints:

• Wash any dirt and oils off hands, surfaces and tools with dishwashing liquid to prep for sculpting
• Prepare clay by kneading until smooth and pliable, can be shaped with tools or press moulds
• Baking times may vary. In general, allow 30 mins of baking time for every 6mm of thickness - test run recommended
• Under normal baking at the correct temperature may generate a small amount of fumes. Baking at higher than recommended temperatures can cause increased fumes and should be avoided (all fumes are non-toxic)
• Place onto a foil sheet or ceramic tile (to diffuse and spread heat evenly) and into centre of household oven preheated to 120 - 130 degrees C (248 - 266 degrees F) and bake for 30 mins
• Do not use a microwave with polymer clay
• Hardened clay will accept additional layers of clay over it and can be re-baked
