- Using the Clay: Take a small amount of clay from the tub. The clay is ready to use directly from the container.
- Storage: Store unused clay in an airtight plastic container to prevent it from drying out. This maintains its soft and rubber-like texture.
- Compatibility: Suitable for use with various craft materials, such as paper, wood, and other modelling compounds.
