Not a good idea

By it's own definition, you don't really want a non-hardening oil based clay behind your hide at the most critical anatomy of your work. Use potters clay, Critter Clay or any of the epoxie clays instead.


IT will work

I was taught to use roma plastilina. It does work but Agree with George you get a better lock with critter clay.
