Textured Roller with Handle
Textured Rolling Pins with handle capable of pressing a continuous repeated pattern on all kinds of sculpting putties, polymer clays, and pastes.
Made of clear PMMA plastic with amazing non-stick properties.
Their small size and the innovative design of their ergonomic handle make them an easy tool to transport and use.
There are different textures available that make them compatible with different modeling scales. The textures are scalable to cover large surface areas. Also, its handle allows us to print textures creating curves to give more realism to the model or base.

USE INSTRUCTIONS:
1st - Properly mix the putty/clay until ready according to the manufacturer's recommendations.
2nd - Extend the putty/clay on a surface to be textured. For optimal results, make sure you have got a smooth and even surface before impressing with the Rolling Pins. *** We recommend using a plain Rolling Pin for this.
3rd - Depending on the type of putty/clay, it is advisable to wet the Rolling Pin to prevent any sticking.
4th - Slowly move the Rolling Pin applying equal pressure at all points for an even texture.
5th - Trim any excess putty/clay with a sharp knife. It is recommended to do this once it has dried to avoid any deformations in the putty/clay.
MATERIALS:
For Green Stuff putty, which is particularly sticky, it is required to slightly wet either the putty or the Rolling Pin with some water before texturing. You may also reduce the stickiness by applying talcum powder, or using Sculptor Vaseline.
Other epoxy putties like Milliput are also suitable. If the mixture is too sticky, it is better to continue kneading until the stickiness is gone. *** For this type of epoxy putties, it is very important to clean the rolling pins properly after use.
