Moldable thermoplastic beads - White 100g GSW
🔥 Thermoplastic Beads – Infinitely Reusable Plastic
Drop into hot water → mould like clay → hardens like plastic when cool. Re-melt and reshape as many times as you need.
📦 What You Get
100g of white, hard pellets made from low-temperature thermoplastic polymer. At ~60-70°C they turn transparent and soft – shape whatever you want. Once cooled, they're solid white and rigid again. No chemicals, no hardener – just hot water.
⚡ How to Use (60 seconds to start)
1
Heat water – around 60-70°C (nearly boiling from kettle works)
2
Add pellets – after 1-2 min they turn clear and fuse together
3
Scoop out with spoon – knead, press into moulds, sculpt
4
Wait 5-15 min – or dunk in cold water to speed up
💡 Don't like the result? Drop it back in hot water and start over.
