What is Foam Clay?
Foam Clay is a special plastic mass that hardens in the air used in Cosplay projects. After drying, it remains soft and resilient, and the end result can be compared to EVA foam. The product is water-based, non-toxic and safe to use.
Allows molding of details and is light to work with. Once cured, can be used in conjunction with EVA foam or Cosplayflex. Once it is completely dry, you can sand it and trim it. With care, can even be gently molded under heat. It is great for creating intricate details, shapes and decorations.
How to use?
Just gain a chunk of mass and just sculpt. You don't need complicated tools to do it. The mass is non-toxic so you can work with it using your hands.
Clay adheres to EVA foam directly after forming without glue. However, for a more durable bond, we recommend gluing after it is completely dry.
Foam Clay is light to work with, and once dry, any remaining imperfections can be sanded away. To a certain extent, it forms under the influence of heat but you have to be careful with it.
Can easily be painted with acrylic paints. Drying time depends on how big the object is made. On average it dries 24 hours but with large parts the drying time is prolonged. On the surface it hardens fairly quickly but in the middle the process takes longer the thicker the layer of compound is.
How to store?
To prevent the compound from drying out, seal tightly in the original packaging. The package consists of two tightly sealed zipper pouches. If for some reason the inner bag was leaking, our mass is additionally protected by the outer one, which is closed with a zipper, which is a very convenient solution.
This type of packaging, in our opinion, is a better solution than a bucket because it takes up much less space and is easier to store.
When we have used up some of our clay and the package is no longer full, we recommend letting the air out of the zipper pouch before closing it. This will preserve the freshness of the product much longer.
Filling cavities
Foam Clay is usually used by Cosplayers to fill cavities in EVA foam or Worbla surfaces. We recommend using Flexi Filler, which is a dedicated solution for this purpose.
