Easy 3D Flex

Easy 3D Flex mixes with Powertex universal medium to create a textured base or clay which cracks as it dries.

Key Features:

1. Composition: Easy 3D Flex a non-toxic, mineral-based powder that, when mixed with liquid hardener Powertex Universal Medium, forms a malleable paste.
2. Texture: This paste can be shaped and moulded to create intricate textures and detailed sculptures. As it dries, it hardens into a durable, stone-like finish. Shapes, texture and patterns can be stamped into the clay.
3. Crackling Effect: One of its unique properties is the ability to produce a crackling effect as it dries. The size and pattern of the cracks can be influenced by the thickness of the application and the drying environment.
4. Adhesion: It adheres well to various surfaces, including canvas, wood, glass, and fabric, making it suitable for mixed media projects.
5. Paintable: Once dried and hardened, the surface can be painted with various types of paint, allowing for further customisation and enhancement of the textures.
6. Waterproof: Easy 3D Flex clay is waterproof after 3 weeks curing time.

Uses:

1. Sculpting: Ideal for creating sculptures, both abstract and realistic. Artists can use it to build up layers and add fine details to their works.
2. Mixed Media Art: It is often used in mixed media projects to add dimension and interest. It can be combined with other materials like sand, pigments, fabrics and fibres.
3. Textured Painting: Artists can apply it to canvases to create textured backgrounds or focal points in paintings.
4. Home and Garden Decoration: Suitable for DIY home decoration or garden feature projects, such as creating textured wall art, decorative panels, garden statues and embellishments for furniture.
5. Craft Projects: Great for a wide range of craft projects, from custom jewellery pieces to detailed model making.

   Application Process:

   1. Mixing: Combine Powertex Easy 3D Flex powder with Powertex Universal Medium until it reaches the desired consistency.
   2. Application: Apply the mixture to the chosen surface using tools like palette knives, brushes, or your hands.
   3. Shaping and Texturing: While the paste is still wet, shape and texture it as desired. You can use various tools and techniques to achieve different effects.
   4. Drying: Allow the piece to dry. The drying time will vary depending on the thickness of the application and environmental conditions. The crackling effect will develop during this stage. Appling heat or placing your project in a warm environment will speed up the drying process.
   5. Curing: Allow 3 weeks after drying before placing your work outside.
   6. Finishing: Once dry, the piece can be painted, varnished, or further embellished as needed.
