CERNIT Polymer Paste, Translucent White, 500 g

Product Information

Cernit Soft Mix: a clay softener that does not change the colour of the clay. You can mix up to a third of the softener with 2/3rd of polymer clay Cernit. This way, the clay will be easier to work with and softer. The plasticity of the clay is increased. All together the translucent clays can seem like quite a muddled bunch with a whole lot of advantages and disadvantages. Let's see how they did:

Pardo, however, becomes much more clear when baked hot and is remarkably heat tolerant with little browning. Cernit is a popular clay among doll-makers because of its translucent quality and the porcelain-like finish it hasafter curing. Pardo translucent is by far the clearest translucent clay available. You can place four sheets of thin Pardo translucent on top of each other, each with a different effect, and still be able to see through to the bottom sheet. This translucent clay has a lot of problems to go with it though. It's much harder to find and is much more expensive than other polymer clay brands. It's also a lot harder to work with as even the slightest air bubble will cause significant plaquing. This clay can be rewarding, but you need a lot of patience and it's expensive. I’ve done marbling which included both Kato and Pardo and then polish with the ultra high micro grits and then buffed. The surface was not completely flat on a micro level because the Pardo wore away more than the Kato. And yes, it’s hard to keep a shine on a surface that’s soft…even normal wear will dull it straight away. The less clear brands of translucent polymer clay work nicely for faux stone effects and to give a less chalky effect to your colors.

I didn’t write this article to compare the physical qualities of the different translucent polymer clay brands. They are very different and sometimes you have to choose your clay based on factors other than translucence. That is part of the art of polymer clay. It’s a highly technical medium that is easy to dabble in but it takes a lot of experience and experimentation to know which materials to choose and how to manipulate the materials to get the results you want. Discussing the features, qualities, uses, and performance of the different brands is something I’ll leave for another day. Cernit does not contain any phthalates. Children should not be left without a watch while using the clay. This product must not be put in the mouth and we advise washing hands after each use.

Cernit Shiny: 14 colours in 56g, highly concentrated in coloured mica that contrast with the colours of the clay. The shiny is different from the glamour due to the thinness of the glitter in it and the effects of the colour. These colours are perfect for jewellery as they have a pretty metallic effect together with coloured hints. Kato translucent is a great clay to use when toning down colors and making faux stones like tiger eye and jasper. However that is about all you can use it for. It's terrible to use for polymer clay projects where you need clear translucent clay and has a horrible yellow tint to it. If you can find Translucent Pardo Art Clay, then by all means buy it and have fun. It’s a fantastic clay to work with. But if you can’t find it, or if you’re not comfortable purchasing polymer clay online, then all is not lost.Is Translucent Pardo Professional Art Clay the clearest translucent polymer clay on the market? Yes. And no. No other clay is clearer. Cernit is certainly just as easy to read through and is just as white. But it’s not better than Pardo. Premo White Translucent is just as easy to read through as Pardo, but it has a tint. Mix both Translucent White and White Opaline(Porcelain) together in equal parts, then mix into Cernit colors 1 -10 parts or more. Cernit index - - High quality oven bake polymer clay -cernit modeling material comes in a wide variety of colors. Regular colors, Glamour colors, Nature colors, and metallic colors When you are done baking, the clay can still be worked with. It can be sanded, drilled, varnished according to the finish you like. For polishing, start with sanding the clay with fine-grain sandpaper. Finish with a polisher to get a maximum glossy effect. The clay could lose some of the glossiness. Then, it has to be polished again. The result will be the same as with varnish. However, the varnish will resist the rubbing and does not need to be applied again.
