Bakable Transfer &
Color Medium
Translucent
Liquid Sculpey (TLS) is liquid polymer clay, and it opens a
whole new arena for artists and crafters alike! It is a bakable
transfer medium for the new millennium! When artist's oil paints
are mixed with it, it can be an enamel, a glaze, or a
backfilling compound. When pigments or mica powders are mixed
with it, it can be a stipple, a metallic glaze, or a grout for
polymer clay mosaics.

TLS is a
fantastic transfer medium, also. (See
Project page). It is a terrific adhesive agent. Its adhesive
qualities are activated only after baking. It increases the clay
to clay bond between raw layers of clay, and when adding raw
layers to previously baked layers. Baking temperatures are
similar to solid polymer clay, but translucence increases when
the temperature is bumped to 300 degrees for a short period of
time. This technique takes careful attention and a well
calibrated oven!
See the
"Getting Started with TLS" project and
Sculpey 201 for the basics. New uses are being
developed every day! |
