Very durable molds ~LOOK FOR BASIC GUIDE BELOW~
Molds may differ in color and shape,the casting itself will be exactly as shown.

1.What are Push Molds?
Castings made with Polymer clay of many diffrent detailed impressions,that can be used to make your own creative designs that allow even the very begginner to make pieces that look like it took you hours to make.
2.How do I prevent the clay from sticking to the mold?
Always lightly dust the mold with Baby Powder before making impression. If it does get stuck,try putting the mold with the clay in it into the freezer for 2-3 minutes to help its release.
Over time Lots of use, the mold may develop a sticky residue,You can clean them by using rubbing alcohol.
3.How do I start making the designs and removing clay from the molds?
Always use softened clay..Can softened by hand or use a Pasta Machine to soften and condition clay.
Clay should feel like smooth Firm Putty
If you are using a deep mold ,form your clay into a sharp point or teardrop and press the point of the clay into the deepest part of the mold first then fill the mold from the center out.
I reccomend filling all molds from the center to the outter edge.
Fill enough to edges to have someting to hold onto to pull clay out of mold.Use a Sharp craft knife to trim off any excess.
DEEPER IMPRESSIONS SHOULD BE LIFTED STRAIGHT UP TO PREVENT DISTORTION.YOU CAN LEAVE EXCESS CLAY ON THE BACKSIDE TO USE AS A HANDLE,LET IT REST FOR 10-15 TO FIRM UP A BIT,THEN TRIM OFF ACCESS WITH A SHARP CRAFT KNIFE.
After molding use a soft brush to remove excess powder.
4.Time to bake
Bake pieces according to Clay Manufacturers instructions.
You can use Colored Clay or White Clay for your projects..There are many diffrent types of paints and powders you can use on the finished baked pieces.
I will add more info as I get it about various aspects of using the clay.There are also many books available at your local craft stores.
I hope this Basic Guide has been of some help to you..
Please feel free to ask any further questions you may have..
Good Luck and most of all have FUN!
