PLEASURE AND DRY STRENGTH

This putty is easy to use. It's not too hard and is easy to shape. The clay will air dry without cracking or shrinking. I will buy this again.

Pros
  • Acceptable
Cons
  • Reliable

As a diffuser, does not absorb essential oils. Otherwise perfect

I love this tone. Haven't played with clay in school in 40 years, love the color texture suggestions on Revain and Pinterest. But he didn't want to suck up my essential oils for my little project. I left 1 as a keepsake, threw away the rest, but will be buying more for other projects

Pros
  • Easy installation
Cons
  • Functionality

Perfect size for pottery

Bought this to use with our clay school pad. This amount is enough to make six medium pots. Very comfortable to wear and dries well. Will definitely order again.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • I'm worried

Takes forever to dry but is easy to work with

Bought this for my kids for the summer. They made turtles, circles out of rope, and some other things that they punched out with plasticine molds. They took a week to fully dry, but we have too much humidity in North Carolina, which may be why. The kids had fun and the clay was pretty easy for them to work with. If it was too dry, all they had to do was wet their hands to make it workable again.

Pros
  • Meets ASTM D4236 standards, available in white and terracotta
Cons
  • Alt

Very beginner friendly!

Loved it and would buy again! It will NOT leave red marks on fingers like some of the other cheaper air cured clays available. This was the first time I've used clay for model making - the clay stays quite wet as you work and this allows for slow working. Idea to use plastic to cover unused clay! It takes a long time to air dry, but that's ok - just use/create ahead of time!

Pros
  • Fine grain, ready to use, lightweight, air dry clay, excellent choice for highly detailed clay applications, requires no firing or firing
Cons
  • Slightly crumpled

THE BEST FOR MY NEEDS AFTER A LONG SEARCH

I have used this clay many times and have found it to be the best for my needs. It doesn't shrink as much as some of the other natural clays I've used. tends to become brittle when dried in thin strips so I apply a good water based varnish to my finished pieces to avoid cracking. Also, the details in the art come out better. , and I found that it took me some practice to figure out how long it took to dry before I could start. Overall I found it just a matter of a few minutes which wasn't…

Pros
  • The hardest air drying clay on the market, an excellent choice for jewelry making; great for wrapping and stamping
Cons
  • Crumpled
