If you've decided you want to use air-dry clay for your next modeling or sculpting craft, you can choose between Porcelain Clay and standard Sculpey Air-Dry.\u003cbr\u003eThe primary differences between the two air-dry clays are their consistencies. The porcelain clay is smooth and translucent and is used for things like flowers, dolls, and higher-end projects whereas other air dry clay is used for basic modeling. Traditional air-dry clay has a fibrous, porous texture that's slightly rougher when dried. Porcelain air-dry clay has a smooth, porcelain-like finish when it dries, which is how it got its name. Air-dry porcelain clay produces a harder, stronger and more durable model when dried, which can be ideal for a number of projects. If you don't add color to the clay, the final product dries slightly translucent, with a look that is very similar to genuine porcelain. Our Sculpey Air-Dry clay dries to an opaque color of either white, terra cotta or whatever colors you've added.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTips for Crafting With Sculpey Air-Dry Porcelain Clay\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhether you're new to working with Sculpey Air-Dry Porcelain Clay or new to clay altogether, the key to getting the best results is to know how best to work with your materials. \u003cbr\u003eSome of our favorite tips and techniques for working with air-dry porcelain clay include:\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Plan to work with a non-porous, smooth and well-cleaned surface.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Try to use only the amount of clay you need at a certain time, and leave the rest sealed and stored away.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Knead your Sculpey Air-Dry Porcelain Clay before you begin shaping it for your creations.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Use your hands, different crafting tools and various multimedia materials to shape your clay into the design you desire.
