Project X .999 Fine Silver Clay ensures a composition of 99.9% fine silver after firing. It has a 960°C melting point. Project X X2O Rehydration Fluid is a revolutionary rehydration solution that outperforms traditional water-based methods. It opens dried binder surfaces, facilitating optimal water penetration, ensuring exceptional performance and convenience. Instructions for use For semi-dry metal clay, add 1 drop of X2O, then add water as needed For completely dry clay, add 5 drops per 5 grams of clay, allowing it to penetrate, and then add additional water as required The unique formulation of X2O acts as a catalyst, enhancing the ability of the dried binder to absorb water. This accelerates the rehydration process, saving precious time and effort. X2O`s specialised composition ensures water effectively permeates dry clay, reducing rehydration time and minimizing the risk of damage or cracking during the process. 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. Please consult the instruction sheet for additional details and safety precautions. Project X .999 Fine Silver Clay pack is supplied in 19g with 15g metal weight.
