Ok, its an old thread topic, but, what do you store your clay in after your done with it? Ive used ziplock bags with a few shots of qd to keep it from sticking, but is there a better way to store clay instead of using a ziploc bag?

My CM bar came in its own plastic case which works fine for me.



I`ve found that storing claybars with QD works fine with Zaino and Mothers which are a bit more rubbery, but the CM bars tend to disintegrate.

Go buy one of those hollow plastic easter eggs that you can put stuff in and store you clay in there.

Maybe a case for a bar of soap from Walmart or a bath store

Come on guys this isn`t rocket science. Anything that seals will work. Just look around the house i`m sure you will find something. I personly wouldn`t go out and buy anything when i can use something i have laying around for free.

I have several bar soap cases laying around the house. That`s what I would think to use first.

Bar soap cases usually don`t seal very well. Any reason why you don`t like the ziplock bags?



For those of you shooting QD in the container with the clay, be careful, some QD`s can break down the clay over time. I just store my clay in a ziplock with nothing else. I had the last block of clay magic for 6 months and the last 1/4 is still like new.

A good container to use is those glad tupperware things.
