FAQ: What is Worbla? Worbla is a thermoplastic, you can find more information on it here : worbla.com Can I use a hair dryer instead of a heat gun? For just craft foam it MIGHT work but for thermoplastics like worbla you cannot use a hair dryer, it will not get hot enough. How do I prime the swords? I use PVA based woodglue or Gesso primer. How do I paint my sword? I have two painting tutorial videos you can look at: youtube.com/watch?v=ijoG3Hw_sNo&index=6&list=UUXUl6yWTLSpUUKmEvbKZIPg youtube.com/watch?v=jwUMrGXHFFM&index=3&list=UUXUl6yWTLSpUUKmEvbKZIPg
