Please note While your clay may appear dry at first glance, it`s simply a part of its exceptional design! The unique `dryness` of the clay upon opening the package is a result of the vacuum packing process, which compacts the clay. Unlike other clays, this means that the clay requires conditioning before use, a simple step that ensures your material is primed and ready for use. Project X metal clay is crafted to transform into a perfectly smooth and workable substance without the need for water. This innovative process is effortless, either roll the clay or knead it with your fingers before proceeding with your creation. Once you do, watch how this clay effortlessly evolves into a smooth and creamy material. It is a fundamental principle to knead your clay to awaken elasticity of the binder without adding water to fresh clay, which can lead to unwanted stickiness.
