Very informative thread. Thanks for starting this one! Reading all of these this and tricks is making me want to break out my box o' Sculpey this weekend.

AFTER
Base got warped and it got all burnt everywhere else...after priming it with a grey primer its not so bad..except for the base
"Hey Boilers" post your procedure for boiling so I can add it to the Unapproved Methods in the first post.
TL
Yup straight in the boiling water it won't absorb any now I did this for smaller pieces not wanting to fire up an oven in the middle of summer, but I guess it would work in a bag also but don't see the point.ray you mean just in the water ...no bag ?

When I started using Sculpey I thought will it cure if I put the piece in a pot of boiling water? so I made a test piece and threw it in for about 10 minutes drained the water and WA-LA! it worked. Many times I put a piece n the oven set the wrong temp or just plain forgot it was in the oven and WA-LA a well done burnt bubbly piece Lol, but the boiling trick does work.
