Clay Shaper - Sculpting Tool
2003-8-25
'Clay Shapers' are mounted silicone points manufactured by Royal Sovereign.
Very similar to a paint brush, a wooden handle and seamless ferrule hold a shaped silicone rubber tip insead of traditional hair.
Available in three stiffnesses, the softest being a 'colour shaper', they come in a range of shapes and sizes.
Shapes: Cup chisel, taper point, flat chisel, cup round, angle chisel. Broad flat, curved & 'decorator'.
Sizes: 0, 2, 6, 10, 16.
Ideal tools for smoothing and sculpting epoxy putty, filler and other malleable materials. Used in the same manner as a paint brush would for smoothing putty, the silicone points provide a more stable tool because the putty cannot infiltrate the rubber as it can into the hairs of a brush. Very easy to wipe clean while working on a rag or kitchen towel.
