Fimo Modelling Clay

Attention, open in a new window. PrintE-mail

Fimo, the popular polymer clay noted for its firmness, is now available in a softer, easier-to-condition form. The softer formula makes it easier for children to use, though it is still firmer than other brands. Fimo Soft Polymer Clay is available in 48 bright colours. It's intermixable with Classic Fimo, and like Classic Fimo it hardens in the kitchen oven.

Fimo Project

Being creative with Fimo is easy:

  • A versatile, easy-to-handle polymer clay which hardens in your kitchen oven.
  • Brilliant color intensity, fade proof, and odorless.
  • Unhardened, even soft kneaded, it can be used again and again if it is well packed and stored at normal room temperature.
  • Any desired shade can be achieved by kneading together basic colors.
  • White Fimo Soft lightens the tone of individual colors.
  • Transparent Fimo Soft gives the tone a translucent quality.
  • Larger models, or models with delicate projecting parts, should be supported from the inside with an armature.
  • After modeling simply place the object in a preheated kitchen oven set at 265 degrees F (129 degrees C) maximum for 10-20 minutes.
  • Baked Fimo Soft can be added to and baked again, providing it hasn't been varnished.
  • Hardened Fimo Soft can be carved, sawed, filed, cut and painted; is watertight and washable.
  • Convenient 2 oz. blocks.
