Great for my small business
5 Stars
Great for my small business
I use this stuff to sculpt onto pretty much everything for my small business: clay pots, canvases, recycled glass bottles, and more!Tips:1. Cracking...so you can't really prevent it. But there are east ways to fix it. For example, My process for sculpting faces is simple. I work in sections. First the nose. Then the eyebrows, cheeks, lips ect...make sure to smooth your seams with A WET PAINTBRUSH... I like to dip my brushed in water then wipe them off on a sponge.Now, let your project dry for at least two days in a low humidy area. In that time, Your project will most likely crack or separate at the seams. At this point, you should make a very thick paste with your clay and use a paintbrush to fill in the cracks and smooth it out as if you were using caulking.Let your project dehydrate completely before sanding, priming, painting and sealing.2. It's important to work in sections and smooth out any imperfections while the clay is still wet with a paint brush or sponge to prevent cracking or crumbling anywhere other than the seams around the sections.Working in sections also prevents other parts of your project becoming dry and clumpy before you can add any further details. You'll understand what I mean once you work with it more.3. To make your clay easier to work with...remove the block from the original package and place it in a zipper top bag. Now, and about a tablespoon of water. No more, and possibly less depending on how moist your clay arrives. Let the block sit with the bag sealed for at least an hour, drain any excess water then begin your project by taking pieces from the bag and reasaling it each time you go for a new piece. You will eventually find your preferred texture the more you get to know how to clay behaves.4. Painting and sealing....I can't stress enough how dry your clay needs to be to successfully create a project that will last. Don't rush it! No matter how dry the clay seems, I can assure you that there is still moisture in there! While your Paint might go on really nicely at first, it will most likely peel off a week later or even sooner if you place it outside because the moisture in the clay began to wick it's way to the surface.I recommend that you follow the steps above for fixing any cracks and then after two days of room temperature drying, place in your oven at 200°-250° for at least 2hours. More or less depending on how thick your project is. The point in this is to dehydrate the clay completely. Then, let cool in the oven. DO NOT TAKE IT OUT RIGHT AWAY! Wait until it's warm enough to take out then WHILE ITS STILL WARM/HOT...I REPEAT...WHILE ITS STILL WARM/HOT... spray/brush on a good sealing primer. Making sure to get in all the crevices! This will prevent the clay from absorbing any moisture out of the air. Trust me. Any bit of moisture will ruin your paint job in the long run. Add two to three coats of primer before painting.5. Sealing...seal small projects with deco art glaze and bigger outdoor project such as pots with Rust-Oleum crystal clear enamel.Hope this helps!

I gave the modeling clay itself and five stars because it is very strong and dries fast. And it needs no Baking. It just air dries even very thin work remains strong. It’s not for beginners because it dries fast you have to know what you’re doing to get the shape you want quickly. You can add water or missed it with water to keep it workable for longer. It will crack if you try to form it while it’s drying. It’s best to cover with damp cloth while trying to keep it from drying too fast if you’re in a warm dry environment. It is easy to work with straight out of the package but quickly becomes harder to work with Without constantly re-wetting it. The packaging is not adequate to keep the clay from drying while storing. It helps to put it in a Ziploc bag removing all the air when storing, Also when using it. Every time you take some to work with you must close and Ziploc bag to keep the rest from drying. The outcome of the modeling work with this Clay is great, if you can work fast, keep it moist and keep the rest of the clay sealed. The best modeling clay of course is not available in the US as far as I can tell. It’s available in India. And I always forget it’s name but it’s what everybody uses on YouTube modeling clay demonstrations. It’s in a green package. So if anyone knows of a way to get that in the US or knows some other brand that works like it does I would like to know about it.

There are many art clays. Air dry clay falls into two categories: non-reinforced clays, like Laguna Wed Clay, Aramaco, Crayola air dry clay, and the cellulose fiber reinforced clays, like DAS and Creative Paper Clay (CPC). Non-reinforced clay becomes very brittle when dry; it shrinks, and cracks, and is lousy for thin section pieces, such as fingers on a hand.
DAS and Creative Paper Clay are stable when they dry. A sculpture will last indefinitely indoors. But reinforced clay dries much faster, so your working time is limited. If your project demands a lot of time, then neither this nor CPC is the clay for you.
Both DAS and CPC produce a dried sculpt resembling balsa wood, kind of between cardboard and wood. Of the two, DAS shows no appreciable shrinkage whereas CPC does shrink some. DAS seems keeps better than CPC and DAS is about half the price. But DAS is a little stiffer than CPC, though not significantly. DAS has a pleasant odor, like leather, and the clay is kind of like working with leather in clay form.
Overall, for small projects, this is a great clay for the money.

Reviewed in the United States on August 4, 2020
Style: 2.2 Lb. WhiteVerified Purchase
I bought this after seeing it recommended from a YouTube content provider. It is a good product overall. This review is more directed toward my own experience on the ease of use and should not be seen as negative to the product itself.

I have a feeling this product is more geared to someone who has reasonable experience with other types of media, such as clay, cold porcelain, etc. Using this for me was tricky. I found that I needed to moisten the product many times to get it to a consistency to be able to manipulate it. It's helpful if you have a knife or other tool to shear off what amount you need as the Das is a bit hard to just pull pieces off. It has an unadulterated consistency that is reminiscent of paper mache' that is very compact and does not contain much moisture,.

One aspect I am not sure of is how you can obtain a smooth surface with this when molding, etc. My test project while moist had faults and lines through it. My second project was to use the Das clay to mold a positive to use as a base. For this, as I had found my test piece, though it dried hard, was not as hard as I had hoped for. To aid this I mixed PVA glue into the clay before pressing it into the mold.

It dried much harder but it still had creasing and such, which for this project was fine. The biggest positive of using Das is that you can sand it and paint it with relative ease after it has dried. One thing to note, if you are using it in a mold, it can take many days to fully dry, and pulling it from the mold can be tricky without messing up parts that are still moist.

Overall this is a useful product, isn't priced in such a way as to be prohibitive for someone who has never used it to give it a try. In skilled hands, I am sure this delivers end results as shown on the packaging. But if you are a novice like myself, you may want to work up to sculpting with Das.
