What You Will Need
Assemble Ingredients
Take Equal Parts of both the Polly Plastics Moldable plastic and Baking Flour
Shake them together well in a Tupperware dish.
Then spread the mixture out into a thin circle on a cookie sheet
Bake Your Mixture
Set the oven to 350 F
Place your mixture in for about 10 Minutes or until the plastic pellets turn transparent.
All You Knead Is PolyArmor ;)
Pull it out of the oven and let it cool for a moment until you feel comfortable handling it to blend it together and knead it all.
Don't let it sit too long though or it will be too hard to work with and you will have to reheat.
Roll It Out Flat
Using a Pasta maker or a rolling pin, roll out the "dough" into a nice flat smooth sheet of your desired thickness!
Finishing Touches
The beauty of PolyArmor is that unlike Worbla PolyArmor is very smooth already and requires no layering priming, sanding, or sealing before you can paint it. You can just paint it and it has a beautiful sheen!
It's better than worbla, it is PolyArmor!!!
Get your plastic here to make some of your own!
