Those who already commented probably figured it out by now but in case someone is looking for the answer... it appears that you do it after baking. Just tried it myself and works pretty slick! I was looking at doing this for fingerprints but I think the lint removal would be good like this as well. You can also remove the lint with rubbing alcohol prior to baking but I noticed that this can potentially dry out the clay and lead to some cracking if you get too carried away. I think it will just take some practice and trying different methods to see what will work best for your situation.
@@amandafees8525 thank you for trying and the comment! I've done it before baking and I feel like thats something I didn't think of before hand with the drying.
Hi 👋😊 I really need help with acetone it seems like even on lighter colors there's always a white residue. I'll clean it off with water, rubbing alcohol, and sand it and it will often just show up again. I'm using 100% acetone so idk what's up 🤷♀️
hey i personally do, sometimes for me it can take off some of the clay depending on how deep the fuzzy is embedded in the clay, sanding is usually my second last step to lacquer :)
It’s best to bake your polymer clay first. Then paint your piece. If you paint on unbaked clay the moisture of the paint will make the clay “muddy”. And if u get lint on it and plant to pant over it you don’t need to do the Q-tip thing. Paint will cover it! Hope this helps!
Agree, isopropyl alcohol works a lot better than acetone, acetone is fine on white clay, but ruins colours. I learnt that the hard way! Only caveat is that isopropyl does nothing once the clay is baked. Only works on raw clay.
Есть бутылки с помпой. Вам не нужно заливать ацетон в крышку, а затем выливать его. Это более экономично и меньше запаха. А еще я использую профессиональную жидкость для снятия лака во время лепки и, при необходимости, после выпечки.
Love your channel and the videos but...acetone is not a very healthy chemical to use and is highly flammable so I wonder If the non acetone polish remover would do the same job.
This may be a dumb question but do we use the acetone before or after baking?
I was wondering the same thing
I have the same question.

ok so alcohol works well before baking, but acetone is after baking :)
What component should we add to make our products look shiny and glossy like resin made products
Love your videos ❤
Hi. Can you use a top coat like Duraclear on top of the clay after using acetone or would the chemicals not react well to each other?
When I do this I always get white residue on my pieces. How do I get this off?
Found you through your Instagram! You’re sooo gorgeous & thank you so much for the tips & tricks!
casuallyDaj Thank you so much!!! I’m glad I can help you out! 🤍🤍🤍
Hi! Do you do this before or after you bake the clay?
My guess is that this is done after :)
after
So simple! Thank you for this tip, can't wait to try this xo
❤Thank you so much!
interesting. Why use acetone first and alcohol after? Is there a reason you don’t just use rubbing alcohol? Thank you.
So good to know!! Thank you for this!
You’re welcome! Glad it is helpful! 🥰🥰🥰
How do you prevent the acetone from leaving white spots and once that has happened, how do you prevent it?

Hello! I used this method and noticed that it leaves a white residue on the clay. Is there any way to get rid of this?
I've been using alchohol and that has worked just as well and doesn't leave the residue:)
