Clay used for engraving
« on: April 13, 2018, 09:20:25 PM »
I am looking for a source for this clay. I believe it hardens once formed and is made malleable again once heated.

Thanks

GRS  makes I think what you are looking for. It is a plastic type of material not a clay. It works great just heat it with a heat gun, set your part, let it cool to harden and engrave away. Thermoloc I think is what it is called. I am using some at this very moment.
