About Polymer Clay

Polymer clay hardens permanently at low temperature without significant distortion. It can be cured at temperatures created in a typical home oven generally at 265 °F to 275 °F (129 °C to 135 °C) for about 15 minutes per 1/4" (6 mm) of thickness and it does not shrink or change its texture during the process.

Polymer clay is sold in art, craft, and hobby stores, and it is used by artists, hobbyists and also by children all over the world.

Brands of polymer clay include Prosculpt, Fimo, Kato Polyclay, Sculpey, and Cernit.
