Chavant NSP Clay

R274.85 incl VAT

All prices shown include VAT

The Chavant NSP (Non-Sulphurated Plasteline) Clay product line consists of clays that contain higher percentage of wax components making the clays somewhat “tuffer”.

Available in Soft, Medium or Hard (terms only relevant to the NSP product line) Chavant NSP Clays have good adhesive qualities, flexibility and length. Because they are “tuffer” NSP tends to accept cut detail lines very cleanly, with no ragged edges. The surface texture of NSP will be somewhat “grabby” when compared to sulphur-based clays and even the NSP – Soft is rather firm by some people’s standards.

NSP is commonly used by artists for the creation of sculpture and is often used to fill cracks in industrial patterns or to build dams when making splash molds. Product designers who freehand sculpt also use NSP.

NSP is subject to surface oxidation. If the clay is in its original package it will have a long shelf life, certainly months and probably years. If the clay is repeatedly heated and cooled, oxidation is accelerated. Sometimes this characteristic is beneficial in handling or mold making since the surface can become harder. Clients rarely comment on oxidation.

This product is being discontinued. Alien Clay is a perfect replacement, a precision sculpting medium and available in Soft, Medium, and Hard. View Alien Clay Here.

To return goods that are not faulty (i.e. because you changed your mind) they must be unused and, in the condition, they were delivered to you in. This does mean that, unless found faulty, we are unable to accept returns for:

  • Opened containers of resin, hardener, silicone or chemical release agent, unless found to be faulty or defective.
  • Unrolled and improperly re-rolled fabrics, unless found to be faulty or defective.
  • Any product that you have subsequently cut, shaped, broken or modified, unless found to be faulty or defective.

Refund of Delivery Charges (Cancelled Orders)

If you return an order in its entirety, then your outbound delivery charges will also be refunded (for orders within the South Africa’s Local Area’s.

If you return only part of an order, then the outbound delivery charge refund will be calculated based on the total postage cost of the original order (using standard service) minus the cost to send the items you are keeping (using standard service). Due to the way that shipping costs are incremented, this will often result in no delivery charge refund being due.

Faulty or Defective Goods

Any goods found to be faulty or defective and notified to us within 7 days of delivery can be returned to us for a full refund.

Refund of Delivery Charges (Faulty/Defective Goods)

If you are returning faulty or defective goods, then your outbound and return delivery costs will be refunded in full (for orders from within South Africa’s Local Area’s.)

In the event that you are returning faulty or defective goods which were ordered as part of a larger order then the outbound delivery charge refund will be calculated based on the total postage cost of the original order (using standard service) minus the cost to send the items you are keeping (using standard service).

Please check the box to acknowledge our return’s policy, by doing so you agree to our Return’s Policy of AMT Composites stated above.

Chavant NSP Clay Handling tips

Chavant NSP Clay can be warmed to soften but as it softens it also becomes sticky. Using small amounts of water, citrus-based solvents, lighter fluid, latex paint removers, turpentine or mineral spirits as a lubricant on the surface of the clay will help to attain a smooth surface.

Chavant NSP Clay Unique Prop’s

NSP can actually be melted and poured as a casting, brushed or sprayed. The melting point is approximately 175° F.

Firmness

Soft “4”, Medium “7”, Hard “8” on a scale of 1-10.

Softening point

NSP – Soft is generally used at room temperature. NSP – Medium and Hard are most often warmed to a temperature of 110° F – 120° F to soften it. When it returns to room temperature it also returns to the initial firmness.

Chavant NSP Clay Working Temp

Room temperature to 40.55°C / 105° F.

Cautions

Due to potential oxidation, if a model is expected to sit for months at a time, it may be best to keep it out of direct sunlight and to cover it with a plastic bag to prevent direct contact with air.

Hygiene

Wash hands with soap and water after use.

All of Chavant modeling clays are certified as Non-Toxic and Non-Hazardous by the ACMI. All of our Fine Art
clays bear the ACMI safety symbol. The Industrial Clays, although certified, do not bear the symbol.
