Professional-Grade Moldable Plastic Pellets by Polly Plastics - Cosplay & Hobbyist Supplies for Crafting, Repairs, and More - EZ Grip Jar with Idea Booklet (22 oz)

Pretty good material but I use another moldable plastic from another brand not sure if it’s diffrent but I’ll give an update on what I’m createing

Easy to use & sculpt but dries and hardens quickly. On the plus side, if you mess up, just warm it up again and start over. It's been very useful for what we make.

I used these product in place of rice that I had used in a crafting class to make gnomes. The rice I realized would attract rodents so I wanted it gone. This works perfectly! I didn’t obviously try melting or molding but now I know it’s available. It was a bit pricey but since it kept me from tossing a craft that I had done with my granddaughter it was worth it! The pellets are tiny smaller than rice, if that matters to you.

Well I like how easy it is to shape to my needs. Sucker is hot AF tho! Be careful when handling it when out of the water. I let the water drip off for about 3 seconds with 2 gentle shakes. What I didnt like was, it stuck to the bottom of my pot and my tongs I used. I'm not sure of it's the type if pot I have but I let it cool down a bit and I was able to just wipe the pot clean. My tongs however I had to pick a bit to clean it off. I am using this product to to refill my polymer 80% lower I messed up on while milling. I'll try to give an update when I remill the lower. Hope it works. But so far excellent product.

This stuff is neat. Very easy to use. I recommend an electric kettle and starting with really hot water and letting it cool to a handleable temperature after becoming translucent and removing from the water. Although I did read the instructions, without thinking I donned my vinyl food service gloves. I barely poked the softened material before realizing that was a bad idea. It would have stuck to it. So I quickly removed them and carried on.Now, the reason I bought these thermoplastic pellets (in addition to just being the crafty sort of individual) is for an off label use. The instructions clearly state that it is not for internal use and I accept any liability in my usage of it. With that disclaimer in mind, it does work for making a mold of your teeth. It doesn't taste bad or like anything actually while molding it to teeth. I can imagine that it could very well stick pretty well to teeth if you swished cold water around and it really set up, but that's not what I'm trying to do with it. I love that you can just keep warming it back up to reuse it. I can see using it for many different prototypes and quick fixes where you need to replace a lost piece. Done with one modeled item? Make a mistake? Remelt it and make it into something else. It is fairly flexible when cooled, but solid, not brittle. I tested it by bending several times and it didn't break. Excess material needed to be cut away. They say it can be sanded but I haven't tested that yet. It is white in color but is not fully opaque. I can't wait to try coloring it! And now that I have a better idea of its material qualities, I can't wait to see what uses I will find for it. The 7oz I purchased will go a long way but I can definitely see myself reordering!

Works as expected. Great possibilities for art projects!

Plastic once formed on ball vise and heated up a bit and piece to be engraved is pushed into plastic - holds thin pieces very well. Much better than clay and can be reheated to release piece and then used again.

I followed the instructions precisely when trying to use these casting pellets. I heated the water to exactly 150°F (using a candy thermometer) and added the pellets. I allowed the water to come back up to 150° but the pellets didn't even start to melt. I raised the temperature to 200°, and the pellets finally started to gel a little bit and congeal. They never did melt into a clear mass as they were supposed to. This made it very difficult for me to mold these pellets, since they never did what they were supposed to. Not impressed!
