Polymer clay instructions below.

THIS MOLD IS NOT FOR USE WITH FOOD.

For best results use firm clay.

•Do not leave uncured clay in the mold except for Precious Metal Clays.
•Mold one part at a time.
•Mold Care: After use, wash mold in soap and warm water.

• Release Agents: Use a mist of water to release polymer clay from your flexible urethane rubber mold. For other materials, test by molding a part.  If the material sticks, a release agent is needed. Some release agents that you might try are, dusting the openings with baby powder (or corn starch) or a light coating of Armor All or oil. If you are using PMC or other metal clay, a light coating of olive oil or other cooking oil may be necessary. To avoid breaking or distorting PMC clay. Allow the molded part to dry in the mold.

• To remove tiny parts: roll a small piece of clay with a cone shape on one end. Gently flex the mold in several directions. Touch the cone point to the molded part to lift out.

• It is very important to condition the clay according to the manufacturers instructions before you begin your project. After conditioning the clay, mix colors needed for the project.

1.There is a measurement chart on the project insert that comes with your Best Flexible Mold that indicates how much clay is needed to fill each mold cavity. •Roll a ball of clay, check it's size on the circle outline. •add or subtract clay from the ball accordingly. •The chart below shows a ball of clay that is 1 1/16 inch in diameter when viewed from above.

2. Gently squeeze the ball of clay into a shape similar to the opening in the mold cavity. •See illustration below.

3.Press clay into the deepest part of the mold and out from the center to the edges. •See illustration below.

4. If you over fill a mold, carefully trim the excess with a flat blade knife or a clay knife or scraper held parallel to the mold. •See illustration below.

5. Before demolding the finished part, clean the edges by pushing clay around the edges back into the mold with your fingertips. •See illustration below.

6. To DEMOLD, gently flex mold in all directions, loosening the part, then flex more fully, lifting or tipping the part from the mold. •See illustration below.

7. Place molded parts on a baking surface. Bake following directions on the clay package. We use smooth ceramic tiles for baking the parts for our Best Flexible mold projects .
