Wonderflex®

Wonderflex® is a well-established name in cosplay and was one of the first thermoplastic materials to be made available to the community. Its' unique properties still make it a favorite for cosplayers and costumers today! 

Wonderflex® is sold in sheets but when heated with a heat gun it can be molded and formed into strong, free-standing shapes. It has a lower activation temperature than other similar thermoplastics which means it has a longer working time before fully cooling. Wonderflex® can be infinitely reshaped after forming with additional heating. It can be cut with a utility knife or scissors and bonds well to other Thermoplastics such as Worbla® and Thibra®.

Wonderflex® has nylon webbing on one side that prevents it from overstretching/ tearing. Due to its relatively low cost and great strength, Wonderflex® is particularly good for reinforcing EVA foam costume parts and making basic armor structures. However, the same webbing that helps give Wonderflex® its strength can also prove a challenge for some cosplayers who want to make complex curves such as shoulder pauldrons and breastplates, but this fabric mesh can be peeled off quite easily if desired. 

Do not leave Wonderflex near heat sources or in direct sunlight during summer months or it may melt.
