      Just an FYI, I was in my local Jo-Anns Fabrics craft store today, and they had Apoxie Sculpt on a clearance rack for $1.97. The tubs are an inch or so across, what I paid roughly $11-$12 for online a few years back.
      I know a few folks here use Apoxie Sculpt, so hopefully this can be useful.

        If we can work out a trade, maybe I could pay you to get me some to send as I can’t find it in stores anywhere here.

        Looking for rainbow or pink & teal grab bags!

        Oh, that is awesome! The only place around here is online, and together with shipping, it cost us $45. ugh. $15 a pair of tubs and then UPS..I would love some if I could get it..Would you be able to do what Kim asked if people liked?

        That’s a nice deal, but only if the Apoxie Sculpt is still good and fresh. If it sits around too long, it goes bad and becomes unusable. I’ve had it go bad on me from sitting too long and not being used. That would be the one thing to be concerned about – How long has it been sitting on the shelf? If it’s fresh, that’s a great deal! Just wanted to throw that out there for anyone who is not familiar with that aspect of Apoxie Sculpt. I know of one place that used to sell it near me (a taxidermist), but no longer stocks it because he kept losing stock if it sat too long. I’ve had the stuff go bad on me as well from not using it frequently enough.

          This is scary. I went and looked at the packages I bought, and don’t see any expiration date or lot numbers on it. I didn’t know it went bad, and don’t know if this is or not. I don’t know if other Joann’s have it either.
          96037, I’d be happy to get you the 2 things left at the store, but it would be caveat emptor.

          I wouldn’t have a problem with that. It is pretty cheap, so to me it would be worth a shot. 🙂

          Just PM me with the total. It would be awesome if you could.

            If you think they are still good, I will take one of them as I only need a small amount to fix a couple pieces here.

            This is too true!
            I got a 16 oz pack of Apoxie Sculpt approximately 2 years ago (8oz of white “part A” and 8oz of the grey “part B”). It was a lot more than I needed but it was a good deal and I figured I may use it for several things and not just repairing Windstones. About a month ago I noticed that the grey half is starting to separate, leaking an odd, brown stickiness. The edges that are nearest to the lid are also crumbly and dry – the only usable parts are deep inside the ball of grey, and its VERY hard to get to at this point! The white half, oddly, seems fine. It’s still moist and easy to work with.
            Next time, I won’t get so much XD

              Refrigerating it will keep it fresh longer 🙂
