PLUS CLAY - AIR DRYING CLAY


PLUS CLAY is natural modelling clay, which dries in the air and achieves high hardness & strength similar to ceramic ware.  Its high plasticity is great for modelling.  It is very clean and does not smell - very important advantages for schools and handcraft workshops.  Once the object is dried it can be coloured or glazed.
