Polly Plastics Heat Moldable Plastic Sheets | 8-inch x 12-inch x 1/16-inch | Made in the USA | for Cosplay, Crafting, and Art Projects | Paintable (3 Sheets)

Really useful product. I had previously used the credit card size moldable plastic from another manufacturer. These sheets are easier to use and you get a lot more for your money. Highly recommend if you ever need to fix or modify anything plastic around the house. I have a heat gun, but I found with these sheets it is easier to use hot water. I leave in the hot water just before it becomes fully transparent and then pull out and mold. If you wait until it is fully transparent it will loose all shape.

I found this product by searching "clear worbla." Be advised, it is NOT worbla. Worbla is much thicker, more textured, and doesn't bend or warp as easily under heat. These sheets are very similar to the moldable plastic pellets that can be melted down and used for making small structures or strengthening larger pieces. It worked very well for my current project, which involved melting it onto a flat plastic surface in order to seal and strengthen a weaker, flexible plastic. The advantage of this product over the smaller plastic pellets is its ability to be cut to size and shape prior to melting, and to be melted flat on top of piece without using hot water to soften it. It does become very pliant under heat, and must have a flat surface under it to stay flat when heated. Overall, I really enjoyed using this product for my build. 10/10, would recommend.

A little flimsy, but I haven’t cut and molded yet.

I'm just getting into making costumes out of plastic. These sheets are amazing! They can be cut easily with a sharp hobby knife. They melt easily with a heat gun. I hit a 2" spot for 10 seconds and move the length of the line i need to cut, then it cuts like a hot knife through soft butter. It can be cut easily cold as well. It molds well into any shape. It can be stretched, and by reheating 2 pieces, they can be blended easily to hide seam lines. I heated strips and applied them to a floral foam ring, they didn't burn or melt the foam. Just take care to not accidentally stretch it while cutting it if you heat then cut. It will stick to just about any surface including cutting mats so spread some wax paper over your work space first! It will not stick to skin unless you heat it to totally clear. It is easily workable with bare skin although gloves can be worn. It's very compatible with the beads as well. Just note that you have to heat both the sheet & beads to blend them. I have not tried dyeing them, but i will do so soon. They take acrylic paint no problem, no primer, no sanding. The only gripe i have is that it is hard smoothing all the little bumps & wrinkles unless you are putting them into a mold. I didn't see the many, many bumps & crevices on a large prop ring until i applied the paint. I've had no issues using Blue Stuff aka Oyumaru to mold little domes to apply "bolts" to armor. Oyumaru is a molding compound that you heat to make molds of items. Even though you have to heat the thermoplastic to mold it, it will not melt the Oyumaru in the process.

Loved this product! I precut into flame shapes then used a heat gun to mold it. Painted with acrylic outdoor paint amd sealed with a clear sealant spray for my son's Ghost rider costume. I melted the base of each flame directly to a latex mask. No glue was necessary to stick it to something else while hot. It worked beautifully and fairy lights were able to shine through.

And as a result the quality lacks ... POLLY PLASTICS...comes through without fail...they deliver what they promise...quality quality quality... So if you have any doubts or are a skeptic..(as I sometimes am 😊).. I promise you will not be disappointed with this company...❤️❤️

The product was very easy to use, even for an inexperienced cosplayer. I needed something easy to use, paint, and layer to create a mask for my Darth Revan cosplay. I looked at the moldable plastic pellets first, but as I was going to flatten it anyways, the plastic sheets made more sense. My picture shows the mask in the mid painting stage. Cutting the plastic was very easy. I used normal scissors. Layering the plastic on top of each pther was a bit more difficult. Hot glue and super glue did not adhere. However, if you heat the base and then heat the piece you want to layer, you are able to effortlessly melt the two pieces tlgether, making layering a breeze after you figure this out. I'm still painting, but I did not have to sand or prime the plastic for the acrylic paint to stay. I highly recommend cutting the sheet first, then shaping it with a hair dryer, not using the hot water method described in the included directions. I wasted almost an entire sheet using the hot water method. When I removed the sheet from the water and attempted to add a gentle curve, the sheet turned into a ball and I could not flatten it out!

It's tough to review this product fairly; suffice it to say that if you haven't used it before, be very, very careful. I expected sheets that soften when warmed; this stuff literally melts into liquid. We wasted the first sheet by warming it in hot water; couldn't do a thing with it after that. So we started warming it with a hairdryer, and had more success. If it has a sheen like it's wet, it's bendable. If it goes clear, it's melted; be very careful. And when it's melted, it's sticky. The good news is that it cools fairly quickly; not so quickly as to make it unusable, not so slow that you get bored. And it seems fairly strong. You can stick pieces together by melting the edges and so far it's held. So, If like me it's you're first time using the stuff then expect to waste a fair amount of it. Do your research and make sure this is what you want; there are other heatable, moldable plastics available. I'm giving this *** simply because it wasn't really what I expected; it's not what I'd call 'moldable' - but to be fair that's partly my fault for not doing enough research.

Worked for the job I needed

These sheets work pretty well, the moulding temperature is maybe a bit on the hot side in my opinion, but the quality of the plastic on its own is good. Maybe a tad overpriced but it seems all plastic products seem to be overpriced anymore.
