Grima's Blood Paste is a dark red, very thick paste used to create the illusion of old wounds (clotted blood effect). Its viscosity allows it to be worked in three dimensions. For optimal adhesion, first cleanse the skin with a cleansing lotion. Apply the Blood Paste to the skin using a derma wax spatula. The paste remains malleable for a limited time (approximately 5 minutes). To remove it, scrape the paste off the skin with a derma wax spatula. Remove any residue first with cold water, then with soap and water. For stains on clothing, first soak in cold water with a pre-wash detergent. Tip: You can find many videos about Grima's products and their application on YouTube.
