Polyform Sculpey Premo Polymer Oven-Bake Clay, Translucent, 8 oz bar

Premo translucent is one of my favorite clays to use. I finally decided to try this larger size after quickly going through the smaller packs available at my local craft store pretty quickly. The price is great for the quantity! I love how smoothe and easy it is to handle! It’s easy to condition by hand with an acrylic roller or just a few times through my pasta machine. It’s a versatile color to have if you love to try your hand at different polymer clay projects like creating faux gemstones or creating skin colors for dolls. I love the different effects you can get depending on how you add color (if you want to), by adding a bit of another color of clay, mica powder, or alcohol ink. I love Premo quality for my jewelry projects. They’re easy to use, the colors are fun, and if you keep them wrapped, they last a long time.

Very hard and crumbly as if it were already partially cured or very old. Update: After returning the bad clay (no hassle), I received a new one in a few days that was in perfect condition. :)

Premo is much stiffer than sculpey III and takes more time to condition but, the added plasticizers in Premo makes it a much better end product. It does not break nearly as easily as Sculpey III. It is very strong. The white Premo is also much brighter and whiter compared to Sculpy III white clay. This is also easier to use than Fimo. It doesn't burn as easy. A quick tip when baking in a toaster oven is to bake on a ceramic tile which you line with parchment to prevent a shiny bottom to the clay. This helps prevent the clay from burning. Also tent your project with foil or a pan turned upside down. This will also prevent scorching.

This stuff is gross. It was supposed to be transparent but instead it looks like it sat in a room full of chainsmokers for several days. I would know, I used to be one. It looks like it should smell. I bought it to make tunnels for my dwarf shrimp and a barrier for a nano sponge filter. I wanted to See the shrimp using the tunnels and tubes. I wanted the barrier to be inconspicuous. Huge disappointment. It's incredibly difficult to work with. I had to spend about an hour kneading it to warm it up so I could attempt to use it and even then it was so hard I couldn't manipulate it the way I'd hoped/needed. I even tried putting it in a bag in warm water but then it got crumbly beyond hope or repair. I actually googled the definition of 'transparent' to make sure I wasn't out of my mind. Was i comfusing opaque and transparent? I was not. Transparent means you can see through it, even if the image is distorted or blurry or just shapes. This isn't even close to transparent. If someone sold me 'transparent' eye glasses made out of this I'd be smashing into walls. I tried making it thinner but not only was it still not transparent, it wouldn't hold a shape even when it was much thicker than I wanted. I'm able to sort of use it the way I wanted for the nano filter barrier, though still not quite the way I had planned. Overall I would rate this a big zero.

Exactly what I wanted. Nice works well and came fast

Premo is a good clay to work with. It's pliable after baking.

I would not use any other brand. Unfortunately I ordered the wrong color. Re-ordered what I needed.

I love using sculpey premo for my polymer clay keychains and sculptures and this translucent clay was very good. It softened very well after kneading and baked good too. It doesn’t crack while baking if you bake it to the package instructions and looks very nice when baked. It does give a translucent effect when it is baked and it looks really nice when mixed with other color clay to make a mosaic type of pattern. I definitely recommend this product.

very bad product.. dry and no way to use it .. waste of money

Unfortunately I have the same experience as the others here. It took so much time to condition it, but it was never as it should be. It never got flexible, that was just impossible. Even softener didn't help. It was cracking constantly while sculpting. It should not be like this with this brand...

Tip top

Alles goed ontvangen. Niet droog zoals meegedeeld met de vorige recensie. Zeer goed kwaliteit

Ho sempre usato le marche "blasonate" e devo dire che Sculpey è veramente top!!!!
