smoothing the mold

[Preds]

anyone know a good way to smooth out "oil based" clay, water based is easy to smooth oil is a pain in my ass. any suggestions would be cool.

delaminant and a sponge to smooth out your final piece. rake and some 99% alcohol prior to that

if you are talking about smoothing it out to work with it better, use a heat gun to soften the clay ..then place the clay that are going to use in a tray under a heat lamp ..it will be fairly workable then
