@UltimatePaperMache Does this recipe rot or discinegrate? I've tried other recipe's that rot within a couple of days. Would it rot after it dries?

[UltimatePaperMache]

@TheBlackenedWolf Anything that contains paper can be invaded by mold. Let it dry all the way, until it's rock hard. Then protect it with paint and varnish. You would do this with a commercial paper mache product, too.

Do you need to use joint compound and can this be put on metal?

[UltimatePaperMache]

@Gxmwp The joint compound is needed in this recipe, but you could find paper pulp recipes online that don't use it. I don't think it will work on metal, but it might - do a small experiment first to see what happens.

can i use something else instead of linseed oil?

[UltimatePaperMache]

@gameman81 You can use glycerin - or just leave it out. The clay works just fine without oil.

@UltimatePaperMache ok Thank you very much!

[UltimatePaperMache]

@hellerZauberer No. It takes over 24 hours to dry, and the linseed oil contains chemicals that should not stay in contact with your skin. Use alginate to make your cast, and then you could use the clay to make the final sculpture.

Would this work for making a cast of my face?
