The CiaraQ 36-color air-dry set is a compact, ultra-light modeling kit designed for simple projects that do not require baking. This material uses a PVA and micro-sphere foam base, which creates a porous and very lightweight finish. It is particularly useful for creating items that need to be hung, such as holiday ornaments, as the weight will not strain branches or strings. The kit is verified as non-toxic and is designed for a mess-free experience on non-porous surfaces.
Functional highlights:
- A focus on high-vibrance colors that remain bright after the drying process.
- A no-bake formula that eliminates the need for using a household oven.
- Small individual packets that are easy for children to open and use.
Specifications show a linear shrinkage rate of 5-8% during the drying phase. Because air-dry clay starts to skin over in about 12 minutes, it is most effective for projects that can be completed quickly. To maintain the build quality of your work, it is recommended to use a secondary adhesive if you are trying to bond the clay to plastic or metal surfaces. This set is a practical "single-use" style kit that provides a good introduction to air-dry mediums.
If you need a toolset that offers more precision than the basic plastic ones included here, the Luney 25-piece professional tool kit is an excellent upgrade.
