Description

MAD Clay is Non-toxic and easy to use. A popular, inexpensive air drying clay, MAD Clay is great for kids and professional artists alike.  It can be moulded by hand, used to take impressions of textured surfaces or used in casting. Simply make your object, allow it to dry completely and you can paint or varnish it. It is a smooth, fine, and less-sticky white clay that does not require a kiln to harden. Other Air Drying Clays available.

NOTE a maximum of 4 bags per purchase due to the weight of this product.

Common Uses for MAD Clay:

• Modelling & Sculpting: Ideal for hand-moulding shapes, making figures, and creating school art projects.
• Impressions & Texturing: Excellent for taking impressions of surfaces (e.g., leaves, textured fabric).
• Casting: Used for casting small decorative objects.
• Decorative Arts: Perfect for making trinkets, jewellery, Christmas ornaments, or small pots.
• School Projects: Safe and easy for kids to use (recommended for ages 3 and up).

How to Use and Finish:

• Work the Clay: Mould by hand; add water if the clay is too hard or cracking while modelling.
• Dry: Allow the object to dry completely in the air (can take longer in winter).
• Finish: Once fully dry, paint creations with acrylic or enamel paints and seal with varnish.
• Firing (Optional): While it air-dries, MAD clay can also be fired in a kiln for more permanent, durable artwork (6% shrinkage rate).

Storage:

• Store in a cool place and wrap securely in plastic when not in use.
