Soft clay is used to create items in the Crafting and Construction skills and to make magic tablets. It can be created by using a container of water such as a vial of water, jug of water, or bucket of water on clay, by using the Humidify spell, or by mining clay rocks whilst wearing a bracelet of clay. It is used on a potter's wheel to craft various Crafting items.

The only place to mine soft clay directly is in the Trahaearn mine, where soft clay rocks can be found. In addition, wearing a bracelet of clay in this mine can yield 2 soft clays per action, whereas mining clay rocks elsewhere yields only a single soft clay per action.

In addition to mining soft clay in Prifddinas, soft clay packs can be bought from Prospector Percy's Nugget Shop in Motherlode Mine for 10 golden nuggets each, Dusuri's Star Shop at the Mining Guild entrance in Falador for 150 stardust each, and Belona's Mining Guild Mineral Exchange for 10 unidentified minerals each. Each soft clay pack contains 100 Soft Clay.
