Troubleshooting
Dough becomes dry and hard.
Ensure dough is stored in airtight containers immediately after use. Try kneading the dry dough vigorously. If still hard, knead in a tiny drop of water, but avoid over-saturation.
Accidental staining on surfaces.
While designed to be anti-stain, clean any marks immediately with a damp cloth. For stubborn marks, a mild soap and water solution may be used. Test on an inconspicuous area first.
Dough loses its scent.
The scent is natural and may fade over time with extensive use. This does not affect the playability or safety of the dough.
Accessories are difficult to clean.
Wash accessories with soap and water and dry thoroughly. For dried dough, soak the tools in warm water briefly before cleaning.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: This set requires no assembly. Simply open the packaging, remove the dough pots and tools, and begin playing. Ensure a clean, flat surface is available for creative work.
Compatibility: The modelling dough is designed for use with the included Djeco tools. It is also compatible with most standard modelling clay accessories. The dough is intended for use by children and should not be ingested.
Care: Store the modelling dough in its original airtight pots when not in use to prevent it from drying out.

The dough itself is designed to be non-staining, but prompt cleaning of any accidental marks is always recommended. Ensure the dough is stored away from direct sunlight and heat.
