Is Sculpey III Really Brittle?

Further to my previous videos about Sculpey III, DAS oven bake clay and The Craft Place clay, I have been told that Scupley III is very brittle so I thought I'd put a few brands of clay to the test.

So the takeaway is use the clay ideal for your project. When you need a harder product use the sculpey 3 need flexibility use the fimo.

I just stick with Fimo - It's a good all rounder

what about the other Sculpey products? the soft, medium hard and super sculpey variations?, but after this i might have to consider buying some fimo clay for my projects

@CurioByBSpokeDesigns 3 жыл бұрын

The other variants aren't readily available here - I tested this one as it was sold in local craft stores

May I ask for the colour name of the Fimo one? It's exactly what I'm looking out for.

No mention of Cernit? I've never heard of Craft Place before...

How long and what temperature did you bake them at?

@CurioByBSpokeDesigns 3 жыл бұрын

I baked them according to the instructions on the packets. Fimo was baked at a slightly lower temperature than the others 110 degrees rather than 130 degrees.

I used sculpey III and I've tried all kinds of heat and time settings every single bake it comes out brittle and breaks easily. I don't understand what I'm doing wrong 😭

Sculpey 2 or III? III is known to be brittle.

i never use sculpey III, always sculpey premo or sculpey souffle, fimo, or cernit.

@eagle-ny8rc 3 жыл бұрын

Hello, have you tried sculpey premo?

@CurioByBSpokeDesigns 3 жыл бұрын

I tend to try out what is readily available, which Premo isn't here. I must order some though.

Did you use fimo soft or professional

@CurioByBSpokeDesigns 4 жыл бұрын

I use Fimo Soft as it was the only one available in my local stores.

What do you think of FIMO kids clay?

@CurioByBSpokeDesigns 4 жыл бұрын

To be honest, I have never used it. I'm not sure it's available in the UK

I see. Thank you so much for taking the time to answer!

I don't like Sculpey III. It's way too soft & sticky. It also breaks apart and crumbles after baking. I honestly love mixing Original Sculpey with Premo to get a decent clay.
