Money Saving Tips
Tip #1 - Don't waste anything, even completely bone dry PMC can be saved.
Open up a piece of cling-film onto your work surface and lay it flat. Then
take your bone dry lump of clay and file it (using a clean file) making sure
all the silver dust particles land on the cling film. Pieces which are too
small to file, chop up as small as possible with a craft knife and sprinkle
onto the cling film. Scrape all the bits of PMC into the centre and add a
few drops of distilled water.
Now gently lift up the corners of the cling film and twist the, now slightly
damp, PMC into a ball and seal by wrapping the clingfilm back on itself, or
using a freezer clip, or peg.
Massage the clay a little and leave overnight to allow the water to soak in.
Massage it again in the morning, still in the cling film and if it is still
dry add a tiny bit more water. Repeat if necessary.
