Today we are talking about how to fix moldy Inka Gold Metallic Rub.

A while ago I did a demonstration on how to use Inka Gold Metallic Paints on Polymer Clay.

We used the Inka Gold on raw and baked polymer clay... and found that it was compatible with polymer, but needed to be added to raw polymer and then baked in order for it to be durable.

Then a viewer said she was having trouble with their Inka Gold going moldy. I checked mine at the time and it was fine.

However, a few months later, I opened my blue Inka Gold and found that it had indeed gone moldy too!

The mold was not on all the jars... just the Blue, so I did some research to figure out what was wrong and how to fix/avoid it.

Apparently, if you dip your finger into the pot of Inka Gold, you can introduce bacteria from your fingers that you picked up from the environment... and because this product is water based, and has wax and stuff in it, mold can grow on it's surface... especially in a warm or moist environment.

But... you don't have to throw your moldy product away! Simply remove the mold with a scraping tool of some sort, and the clean the surface with an antibacterial wipe, or a cloth with disinfectant on it.

The next time you use the rub, just remove a small amount (NOT using your finger), or use a clean cloth so that you aren't reintroducing new bacteria to the container.
