plastilina (ór...porcelanicrón)

Explanation:
check link below and find out if that's the kind of modeling clay your're asking about...There's also "porcelanicrón", although I've to admit that I can't tell the difference in composition between one and the other, I know they "look" different, and probably also work differently,but it's only a guess...Suerte!
