What is the difference between AirDry Clay and Model Magic?

Crayola Air-Dry Clay hardens to a durable solid and becomes stronger with time. More information about Air-Dry Clay can be found here.

Model Magic remains lightweight and somewhat flexible even when dry. More information about Model Magic can be found here.

Both air drying compounds generally take 24 hours to dry to the touch; 72 hours to dry completely. Drying times can be altered by environmental conditions and the size of your piece. Learn more about Crayola modeling compounds here.

It is difficult to provide an exact shelf life for Crayola products because it depends on how and where they have been stored. Our products are generally tested on the basis of how they are used, rather than how long they have remained unused. We stand behind the Crayola brand name and will work to take care of any quality issue you may encounter. If you have any further questions, please call (800) 2729652 weekdays between 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM Eastern Time and a representative will be happy to assist you.

While the marker barrel and cap are recyclable, not all parts of the marker are. Because the marker components are securely sealed during the manufacturing process, we don’t recommend trying to remove the marker nib and reservoir. The marker caps can be recycled at facilities that accept #5 plastic. 

Crayola offers an innovative program called ColorCycle that converts old markers into energy as well as wax compounds for asphalt and roofing shingles. The process repurposes the entire marker, regardless of the different kinds of plastics or how they are assembled. You can learn more about this program and all of Crayola’s other environmental initiatives at www​.cray​ola​.com/​c​o​l​o​r​cycle.
