Build a model you can return to and reshape. Plastiline medium 55 is a ready-to-use, sulphur-free modelling compound that never air-dries. Add or remove material and refine details while making sculpture models, prototypes, reliefs and impressions.
Contents and colour choice
- One 750 g block in your selected colour, with medium hardness 55.
- Ivory: 7155T. Dark grey: 7755T. Naples pink: 7255T.
Hardness 55 can be worked with your fingers or modelling tools. Higher hardness is useful as a model becomes larger or calls for finer, more complex detail. Different Plastiline colours and hardnesses can be used together in one model.
Shaping and reworking
Work the compound as supplied, or soften it first when you want easier shaping.
- Shape by hand; use modelling spatulas, loop tools or shaping knives to remove material and develop details.
- If needed, soften the compound in a 30–40 °C water bath. Refrigeration makes it firmer again; this does not cure it.
A model for mould-making
Prefer ivory or Naples pink for contact with resin to limit possible colour migration from other colours. Use fresh Plastiline with addition-cure silicone and make a small trial with your chosen material first. The compound remains workable and serves as model material; it does not become a hard, air-dried finished object.
Care and safe handling
Wash your skin with warm water and soap after working; do not use solvent for skin cleaning. Work in a well-ventilated space. Use impermeable gloves and safety glasses during prolonged use or heating to avoid splashes. Store dry in the resealed original packaging at 15–25 °C.
