So I had an old bag of shredded paper in the garage and decided to see if I could make some pulp out of it.  Soaked it for two days, ran it through my food processor, strained it then pulverized it again.  However, throughout the mess, I noticed I must have shredded envelopes becuase there was a lot of clear plastic in it.  I decided to press on and see what the outcome would be so I added my glue.  I got this giant rubbery ball of goo. 

I assume it's from the adhesives used on the envelopes that I shredded?  Before I throw this away I wondered if anyone else has done this and if there is a use for this glob in paper mache.  Does it ever dry out and become hard?  It doesn't stick to your hands or anything, but if you pull it apart and stick two pieces together, it sticks GREAT!  I'd hate to waste it, but if it's trash, it's trash!  I'm wondering if I could use it to build up some of my pieces (like to use as a tail or roll out and make designs) and then papier mache over it.

I came on here 'cuz I know someone will have an answer for me.  Thanks!
