Monster Clay® Brown Medium 1lb

Monster Clay® Brown – Premium Reusable Sculpting ClayMonster Clay® Brown Premium Grade Modelling Clay is a professional, reusable sculpting medium trusted by artists, sculptors, FX technicians, prop makers, and educators worldwide. This sulfur-free, oil/wax-based sculpting clay is designed for precision detail, repeated reuse, and compatibility with platinum-cure silicone moulding systems.Formulated entirely from non-toxic, food-grade components, Monster Clay® features an ultra-smooth, low-tack consistency that won’t stick to tools or fingers. When warmed, it becomes highly elastic—stretching almost like soft taffy—while at room temperature it firms up enough to capture crisp, fine details.Monster Clay® melts easily to a pourable consistency, making it ideal for life cast modifications, mould corrections, and rapid prototype duplication. Once cooled, it returns to its original solid state without shrinking, cracking, or degrading. Buy it once and reuse it indefinitely.Key Product Features✔ Low Density = More Clay per Block Monster Clay® has a lower density than standard oil-based clays, meaning you receive approximately 25% more usable material per pound, making it a highly cost-effective sculpting solution. ✔ High Elasticity When Warm Its unique elastic quality allows the clay to stretch and deform without tearing, making complex shapes and organic forms easier to achieve. ✔ Ultra-Smooth Composition Easily workable when gently heated. Surface smoothing can be achieved using 99% isopropyl alcohol, citrus solvent, or mineral spirits. ✔ Sulfur-Free & Platinum Silicone Safe Fully compatible with platinum-cure silicone moulding compounds, making it ideal for professional mould making. ✔ Firm at Room Temperature Remains stable and firm at average room temperatures, allowing for accurate detailing with fine sculpting tools. ✔ Non-Drying, Non-Hardening Formula Monster Clay® does not polymerize, oxidize, dry out, or become brittle over time. It retains its original plasticity indefinitely. ✔ Fully Reusable & Re-Meltable Can be melted, poured, cooled, and reused repeatedly without changes in composition. ✔ Excellent for Life Casts & PrototypingIdeal for modifying life casts before tooling, refining sculpted forms, and enhancing rapid prototypes.Temperature & Handling GuidelinesMelting Point: 57 °C Optimal Pouring Temperature: 65 °C Maximum Temperature: Never exceed 82 °C Comfortable Handling Temperature: ≤46 °C Monster Clay® can be softened using a light bulb, hair dryer, or gas-style oven. It is packaged in an oven-safe tray rated to 93 °C. Always stir thoroughly when melted to prevent component separation before pouring. ⚠️ Microwaving is not recommended due to uneven heating and burn risk.Certifications & SafetyVegan Certified Non-Toxic Conforms to ASTM D-4236 Sulfur-Free Oil-Based & WaterproofAlthough skin-safe, Monster Clay® is not recommended for direct application to skin and is intended as a transitional sculpting medium, with final parts typically produced in resin, latex, or other casting materials.Frequently Asked QuestionsCan I mix different grades of Monster Clay?
