Review on ๐Ÿ”ง Moldable Plastic - 32 oz - InstaMorph by Amy Mcleod

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Easy to use and good looking

I bought this to make small accessories for my daughter's Halloween costume. It's a bit difficult to use at first, so definitely don't wait until the last minute to use this stuff (like I did). I'm sure there are smarter ways to manipulate it, but I only needed a small amount, so I used a steel measuring cup and used a heat gun to heat the base like a glass over a burner to melt the balls. Once the beads have melted you should be moving fairly quickly but take your time as it gets INCREDIBLY HOT once melted (yes I know but then again I waited until the last second). It stays pliable for a while, but still not for too long. The pieces I made turned out great and went well with her costume. I will definitely use them again for other projects and highly recommend them if you want to make small pieces for random purposes. Once everything has set again it's easy to clean - I just pulled out the newly formed "plastic liner" that was left in the measuring cup and tossed it into a bag of pellets to remelt for future use. While my approach isn't perfect, overall this product is perfect for beginners or those looking to get into cosplay.
