  • SILLY PUTTY is made primarily from silicone and color pigments. Silicone is an oil-based product and by nature will not dry out. If Silly Putty is left out of the container over a period of several years, it may harden due to other ingredients contained in the putty. The other ingredients are proprietary and cannot be shared.

  • Silly Putty is not intended for use as ear plugs. Known as a "solid liquid", it will not maintain a molded shape. It is composed of a silicone material that becomes softer when exposed to normal body temperature. In addition, changes in atmospheric pressure could force the material to flow deeper into the ear than intended, possibly making contact with the eardrum.
