Made from clear, non-toxic PMMA plastic with amazing non-piercing properties. The texture rollers are available in several different textures, depending on your specific needs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLength: 14.50 cm (5.5 inches)\u003cbr\u003eDiameter: 2.5 cm (1 inch)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eINSTRUCTIONS FOR USE:\u003cbr\u003e1. - Mix the putty\/clay\/modelling paste thoroughly until it is ready according to the manufacturer's recommendations.\u003cbr\u003e2. - Spread out the putty\/clay\/modelling paste. For best results, smooth the material. We recommend using a flat, untextured rolling pin for this purpose.\u003cbr\u003e3. - Depending on the type of material, we recommend moistening the roller to prevent it from sticking.\u003cbr\u003e4. - Move the roller with consistent, even pressure to ensure a continuous texture.\u003cbr\u003e5. - Cut off excess material at the sides with a sharp knife. We recommend letting the material dry beforehand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMATERIALS:\u003cbr\u003eThere are many different putties and types of clay on the market, and all can be textured with the right technique.\u003cbr\u003eModelling with these rolling pins and polymer clay (Fimo or Sculpey type) is usually quite easy, as polymer clay allows for easy error correction due to the heat required for curing.\u003cbr\u003eIf the goal is to model textured bases, we recommend using MDF wood bases. It is possible to texture the material directly on the bases and then fire the model, including the MDF wood bases, in the oven at 150°C for 15 minutes. The MDF wood bases will not burn and will only have a slight smell reminiscent of toast.\u003cbr\u003eIn the case of epoxy putties, there are different techniques to achieve similar results. The advantage of these materials is that they do not need to be fired but can be textured directly.\u003cbr\u003eWhen using Green Stuff, which is particularly sticky, it is advisable to moisten the surface of the roller or the material with a little water before embossing the texture.\u003cbr\u003eTalk powder, or even directly applied modelling petroleum jelly (LINK), can also reduce the stickiness of Green Stuff.\u003cbr\u003eOther epoxy putties, e.g., Milliput modelling pastes, can also be used. However, these should not be moistened, as it unnecessarily complicates the work. If Milliput appears too sticky, the mass should be kneaded until the stickiness subsides.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCLEANING AND CARE:\u003cbr\u003eAfter using the roller, it should be cleaned with a scratching brush and plenty of water to remove any residue of the material used.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSAFETY:\u003cbr\u003eChildren should always be in the presence of an adult when using the product.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!----\u003e","brand":"Greenstuff World","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48018093801715,"sku":"124332","price":14.15,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0706\/8699\/8771\/files\/124332-strukturwalze-alien-hive-gs-1664-1.webp?v=1781203554","url":"https:\/\/radaddel.de\/en\/products\/strukturwalze-alien-hive","provider":"Radaddel","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
