THE NO-STICK METHOD
Water is a key element in making sure your sculpting tool does not get stuck in the putty as you work. However, there are times when you'll need to work on a piece of putty in a manner where it has to lay flat on a surface while you work. When it comes time to pull the putty up, you may find that it has permanently bonded to your table, desk, book, or whatever it was you were working on. To ensure that your creation does not stick, employ a thick plastic bag (like the ones we use to ship components to customers like you) or some wax paper.
