It holds exceptional surface details and is somewhat waxier and tougher than other Chavant products. NSP can be melted and poured at approximately 185°F.

How To Melting NSP Clay
Most of Chavant’s non-sulfur clays can be melted. Depending on formula and consistency the heated material can be brushed onto an armature and in some cases, poured into a mold or even sprayed, although the equipment and advice required to spray is not widely available. It is recommended to heat the clay in a double boiler, a crock pot or some other controllable heat source. Over-heating the clay is not recommended. Excessive temperature can cause the components to scorch or separate, a situation that may or may not be recoverable. Always test your method in advance
NSP can be brushed at 180°F and poured at 185°F. When cooled, the clay tends to feel harder than the original but can be kneaded back to a firmness and consistency similar to the original clay. Repeated cycle of melting and cooling will eventually cause irreversible hardening
