Worbla Thermoplastic TranspArt Sheet 39"x59" Transparent
Worbla Thermoplastic TranspArt Sheet 39"x59" Transparent
TranspArt (also Transpa Art) is Worbla's option for those looking for a resilient, non-toxic and solvent stable clear plastic that can be hand formed and vacuformed with ease. Fantastic for making visors, decorative eyewear, ice, crystal and fire effects, 'invisible' foundations and anything else you can imagine, Worbla's TranspArt (WTA) has similar flexibility and weight to Worbla's Finest Art (WFA) and shares the ability to reblend scraps to recycle everything, while being incredibly resilient to stress. Lighter than acrylic sheeting and more durable than PETG, TranspArt is resistant to cracks, fractures and shattering under pressure, maintaining a unique flexibility that returns to form when bent.
As TranspArt is injection moulded, the injection lines are present in the finished sheets, but can be worked out with heat and shaping. Please note that because TranspArt is not an optically clear plastic, it is not suggested for eyewear that will see heavy use and is best for decorative pieces. ranspArt is not perfectly clear. Please note that sheets will have lines from the injection molding process through the length of the sheet and occasional divots. These can be heated and stretched out when shaping.
Unlike regular Worbla, this product should be heated to 120C (250F), so wearing work gloves with rubberized fingers is recommended. The material cools down after a few minutes but can be reactivated as often as you like, so you can work bit by bit. It is recommended to use a wet sponge, old toothbrush, or modeling tools for sculpting. When kneaded the material becomes a little milky, so you can create semi-opaque effects as well such as LED-backed stones.
You can paint Worbla's Transpa Art with spray-paint or with a thermal foil used for car detailing. Surplus material should be removed after heating the material again. Rough areas can be smoothed using clear lacquer or nail-polish. To connect pieces or fuse layers, it is recommended using clear superglue. It does not adhere to itself in the same way that regular Worbla does. Popular with cosplay projects.
