Conditioning clay helps with Cernit. Sculpey, Fimo. I had a lot of scrap clay with mixed brands, and I was able to my scraps into new colors, using Conditioning Clay.

Kato Conditioning Bar
I bought this Kato Clay Conditioner so I could repurpose a bunch of older clay that has just been in a bin. The old clay was mostly Premo clay with varying degrees of age. I chopped the old clay up before I added the conditioner. Ratio wise I added an old clay amount that would equal roughly 2- 2oz blocks of clay. The amount of conditioner I added equaled about what you would get if you took a 2 oz block of clay, cut off one of the 4 bars, then cut one of those bars into 4 equal pieces and take one of those 4 pieces. I hope this makes sense as it really took that small of an amount to condition 2- 2oz blocks of clay. I couldn’t believe how beautiful the texture was of the old clay once I conditioned it thoroughly. You would not think for a second that it was old clay because it conditioned so beautifully. Just keep working the clay and have faith, that’s what I learned. Some of the old clay chopped pieces were like hard Little Rocks and I debated whether I should take them out, which I didn’t. I just kept working the clay with my roller and the clay machine. This conditioner is AMAZING!!! And this whole block will last you a long, long time!!! Donna Kato has created for us another wonderful product that will save and allow us to repurpose tons of old, unused clay!!!
