Product overview
FIMO Professional Cameo is a firm oven-hardening clay in a warm pale pink shade developed within STAEDTLER's former Doll Art naturals for faces, hands and portrait miniatures. The material stays soft on the bench because it does not air-dry, giving time to add parts and smooth joins before hardening. Its professional consistency requires careful conditioning but offers strong dimensional stability, while thin hardened sections retain both fracture resistance and some flexibility. Place the model in a preheated domestic oven at 110 °C for 30 minutes, check the temperature with an oven thermometer and never use 130 °C as part of the baking schedule. This large 454 g block is resealable and scored into eight portions.
- The archived Doll Art range places Cameo among six natural shades with a semi-matt porcelain finish.
- STAEDTLER specifically identifies adding parts and smoothing over joins as uses for the Doll Art formulation.
- Its special opacity was developed for miniature faces and other detailed doll-making work.
- STAEDTLER states that the colour and shape remain virtually identical during hardening.
- A broken hardened component can be reattached with super glue.
- Store opened clay in the resealable packaging, protected from dirt and dust.
Notes · Q & A
How do I bake polymer clay safely at home?
Use a conventional or toaster oven, follow the temperature and time printed on the clay's packaging, and keep the room well ventilated. An oven thermometer is useful because the dial may not match the temperature inside; overheating can darken, crack or damage the piece.
What does conditioning polymer clay mean?
Conditioning means warming, rolling and working the clay until it becomes evenly flexible and ready to shape. Properly conditioned clay blends more cleanly, accepts detail more consistently and is less likely to retain stiff or crumbly areas inside the finished form.
Can oven-bake clay be baked in stages?
Many polymer clays can be baked more than once, which is useful when building a sculpture in sections or adding detail to a hardened base. Follow the instructions for the specific clay, and avoid rebaking over paints, glazes or added materials unless they are suitable for the oven.
How can I finish polymer clay after baking?
Let the piece cool fully before sanding, carving or drilling it. Many oven-bake clays accept water-based acrylic paint, but check the maker's instructions and test unfamiliar paints or coatings on a spare baked sample before applying them to the finished model.
