Bake & Bond
Be prepared! Keep a bottle of Sculpey® Bake & Bond on hand at all times.
Bake & Bond is an adhesive that adheres clay to clay, whether the clay is baked or unbaked, making it the perfect tool for fixing ClayPaws prints. If you have a broken, baked ClayPaws print, or baked ClayPaws print with an incorrect name or date, and cannot make a new print, Bake & Bond will help you make the repair or the correction.
Watch our instructional videos below to learn how to repair broken prints and to correct names and dates in baked clay!
Please note: To make the repairs as directed, you will also want some extra ClayPaws Clay of the same variety on hand, as well as some “very fine” or “super fine” sand paper. Also, Bake & Bond requires baking to cure. You will need to bake or re-bake the print after making the repair.

What Customers Say
I just wanted to write to you to tell you how very thankful I am for your thoughtful keepsakes of clay paws! I love the idea and have never owned one before. Recently, my almost 15 year old childhood Golden Retriever had to be put to sleep due to a severe gastrointestinal lymphoma complication. It was a very heartbreaking experience for me and my family, but we were comforted to know that we were there with him till the end and he lived a long happy life. A vet tech was clipping some fur for me and offered me a clay paw. It was an unexpected offer of sympathy and I eagerly accepted this cherished keepsake of my beloved dog to be made in his honor. It was so neatly done! The vet tech came to meet me at my car and when I held this imprint, it helped quiet the loneliness that struck me in grief all the way home without my dog. I felt so moved because I was planning to make a clay paw, but out of the craft kits found at the craft store, just hadn’t had a chance to get one yet. So glad I didn’t buy one of those kits, but instead received yours which is from what I’ve heard is definitely the only kind that lasts! To my surprise, there was no toxic smell to the clay and it came off the glass pyrex dish easily! I really love your perfect clay formula and will highly recommend it to other pet owners! Being so satisfied with your clay, I immediately visited your website to order a copy kit and some blue sculpey bake shop clay packets. The mold was a little more delicate to make, but it turned out after several attempts. We used the mold to make the rest of the paw prints right on the first try! I’m so glad that I made copies to give to every member of my family as a beautiful memorial of our beloved puppy…I cannot say thank you enough for making simple and lasting keepsakes in clay paws of our wonderful pets! They’re a lifetime of heartwarming memories preserved. I can hardly wait to use your products in the future to make memories of my next canine companions! Please keep doing what you’re doing for pet owners! It’s very encouraging to have your clay available for any paw regardless of what size it is. You recognize each of our beloved pets’ uniqueness and you’re a wonderful help in making memories of them!
