Ideen mit Herz 012416 – plastic granules moldable in hot water

Ideen mit Herz plastic granules, 250 g

This is a thermoplastic granulate in the form of small white beads that becomes pliable when heated in hot water and can be shaped freely. After cooling, the material hardens and keeps the shape it was given, so it is well suited to making figurines, decorative elements, prototypes, small handles or repairs in the workshop and at home.

How to work with it

Pour the granules into a container and carefully add hot water at a temperature of at least 66 °C. After a moment the beads turn clear and stick together into a pliable mass that you can take out of the water and shape by hand. When the mass cools, it turns white again and hardens completely. The finished piece can be painted or tinted. The water and granules can be hot, so caution is required.

• modeling figurines and ornaments,
• making prototypes and mock-ups,
