Jeff Longtin Posted December 27, 2022 Report Share Posted December 27, 2022 For many years there was a Wisconsin company making a form of plasticene clay called "Klean Klay". It is a wonderful oil clay in that it never hardens. Does anyone have any, sitting around, that they're not using/will never use? (I have trried other oil clays but they do tend to dry out/stiffen over time.) Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moonzie Posted January 3 Report Share Posted January 3 We have a drying cabinet that we have some incadescent bulbs in. We have some oil clay that we put next to that bulb for 24 hours and it actually softened up and became useable again. But after about a week it became too stiff to work with again. Try warming it up. Might come back to life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
