Well…I would not use liquid polymer clay this way. Baking hot enough for the liquid clay to be strong is causing your earrings to change color. I suggest embedding earring posts in the earrings.

I do sell a tutorial that goes over this process in detail. You might find that it solves your problem. Does Sculpty Liquid Clay contain toxins? Is it necessary to use respirator and gloves when working with this product as is recommended when using UV Resin?

No, polymer clay and liquid polymer clay is non-toxic when used as directed. It does not contain the hypersensitzing ingredients that resin does. I have an old-ish bottle of unopened liquid clay that appears to have partially solidified. Is there any way I can revitalize it? Or has it gone bad?

I have the same problem — a bottle of Transparent Clear that sat unopened for a couple of years my bad, I know. Half the bottle was solid and quite hard, too — in the end I stabbed it with a knitting needle until I could break it into chunks, then mixed every chunk with a bit of the liqiud part, one by one. Thanks so much! Hello Thank you for the article — very informative. My question is, would any of these be good for adhering glitter to beads prior to baking? Sure, it works great.

Mix the glitter in and brush it on, or coat the raw bead with a tiny bit of liquid clay and roll in glitter. Then bake. The more liquid you add, the gloppier it gets and it might run off, so go sparing with the liquid clay. Thank you Ginger for clarifying these products! I get a brain freeze trying to figure out the differences and nuances. By the way, I read a great tip you wrote in a previous article, add a little bake and bond to a hot fix flat back for a permanent bond.

Thanks for the incredible effort you show in educating all of us! Have a wonderful holiday season!! Your email address will not be published.

To make a bakeable painting and surface medium, add oil paints. Add dry pigments to create glazes and color washes. Bake and Bond Liquid Sculpey : Provides a very strong clay-to-clay adhesive for design solutions. Allows uncured clay pieces to join completely without the traditionally necessary pressure which flattens or distorts shapes. Use as a glue to join baked or unbaked clay, then bake according to the clay instructions.

Can also be used to coat paper mache, wood or canvas surfaces to cover with clay. Both dry clear and gives your clay product that extra touch. It will create a chemical reaction or something where the clear nail polish will leave your clay craft with a forever sticky finish that will attract dust, finger prints, etc.

Hope these product insight helps wit your clay crafting. Happy Crafting!! Hello Just want to add that TLS is always sold out so I decided to try out Bake and Bond to make a frosting and it actually came out rather well, although it did come out thick so it was a bit difficult to work with. It of course had slightly different results and I am inexperienced wtih working with sculpey to begin with XD But basically what i did was mix clay with the bake and bond to get the color.

Try scraping in a little chalk pastel into the Bake and Bond instead of mixing in a bit of clay the color blends in more quicker and smoother than mixing in clay bits. I do hope you continue to experiment and work with Polymer clay! Pieces like arms, legs, tails, ears, etc. I love how Polymer clay is solid and not crumbly at all.

Stay CR8TiV!! Personally, I prefer Kato liquid clay and Kato polypaste both available online from Prairiecraft and other stores. Kato liquid is clearer, and can be heat-treated to be as clear as glass; polypaste is thick, like toothpaste or vaseline and works very well to stick things together before baking. Bake and Bond also from my experience is a useless product. It says you can use to it glue already baked pieces of clay in cases like a baked piece broke or you needed to add one more thing to the finished product.

I have attempted to add-on to a already baked product by adding a tiny smear of Bake and Bond to adhere it … Wasted my entire finished product bcuz like you said the Bake and Bond does not dry clear so the glue excess that oozed out a little was visible ruining the entire finished product and you can tell something was glued on to it.

Many crafters use e glue to bond things to clay but the smell of the e is horrible. A general Heavy-Duty Super Glue works well for me. You can also just use a High temp Hot Glue gun.

I have the Adtech Dual-Temp cordless Hot glue gun which works like magic for alot of my gluing needs.
