TreeFLX Moldable Bioplastic
- Add hot water (150F/65C) to the moldable bioplastic pellets (as an alternative, you can also use a heat gun).
- After a few minutes in hot water, the moldable bioplastic pellets will turn transparent.
- Cautiously remove the moldable bioplastic pellets with tongs or a spoon and get rid off any excess water.
- Begin forming the moldable bioplastic pellets into your desired shape. You can always re-heat it all or parts of it to make it moldable again.
- Let your creation cool down. If you don’t like the outcome, you can re-heat it and mold again.
- Once cooled, you can sand, drill, varnish or paint it.
