ARTISTA SOFT contains its own glue – so sticks to itself and almost anything apart from your hands. Can be coloured before using or afterwards. For craft projects, acrylic paints, water colours and poster paints. Suitable for Air Brushing. It can be glazed with any form of spray glaze or brush on glazes.

Main ingredients are potato flour and rice flour. Is very safe to use but recommended for children’s use only when old enough not to put in the mouth (because ARTISTA SOFT has its own glue it could stick in the throat). If you are undertaking larger projects where both pieces are dry then you can use either a little wet ARTISTA SOFT paste, or any PVA Craft glue – Tacky glue.

ARTISTA SOFT can be used for any type of modelling or moulding. In place of Paper Mache, and other oven backed clays or pastes; - dolls and dolls house furniture. For train or aircraft modelling – for card embellishments – napkin rings or any kind of craft work. It can be used for making moulds or veiners and can be cut with designed cutters, scissors, or a craft knife.

ARTISTA SOFT has a forever shelf life providing you keep it from the air. DO NOT PUT IN A FRIDGE OR FREEZER and to be kept away from direct sunlight where it could sweat while still in the packaging. Once opened, seal the packaging again and place in a piece of cling film and then in a polythene bag or box.

(Do not keep in cling film only as this breathes). To avoid the paste being too sticky for you to use put a little grease (i.e. Nivea Crème, Trex ) on your hands, the boards, the cutters or whatever you are using and leave in the air a little to air dry to enable you to get the consistency you wish.

ARTISTA SOFT is sold in large packs of white paste, which can be coloured with the relative colour of your choice. White is sold for £5.00 per pack. ARTISTA SOFT Also has the four main primary colours in smaller packs at £3.00 per pack. (Blue, yellow, red and black). All the colours are intermixable and when moulded together can make a kaleidoscope of colours.

The coloured pigments are ARTISTA SOFT and contain very heavily pigmented colours. You could find that the coloured pigments on their own had lost a little bit of the glue content in them, so meld down with a little white ARTISTA SOFT. You can be working with these colours and they will not come off on your hands. Note: Because ARTISTA SOFT is an opaque paste it is very difficult to get vibrant colours when using acrylics and water colours etc, so we recommend that you do use the ARTISTA SOFT colour pigments.

For cake decorators you may use your dust colours, glycerine paste colours or food colouring also. Remember it is non –edible and although the contamination between cake and decorations is not a problem, but because you cannot eat it you cannot cut through when dry, use for decoration purposes only. Either put sprays in a pick or container. Dust powder colours on when dry – then glaze with Confectioner’s glaze.
