What makes it ours

  • Rich terra cotta color
  • Ready to pour, no mixing
  • Easy mold release
  • Food-safe when glazed
  • ASTM D-4236 non-toxic
  • USA-made

How to use

  1. Shake or stir well before pouring; slip settles in storage. It arrives ready to pour, so no mixing is needed.
  2. Pour into a clean, dry plaster mold and fill it to the top.
  3. When the wall reaches the thickness you want, pour the excess back out.
  4. Let the cast firm up until it pulls away from the mold, then remove it.
  5. Let the piece dry completely before bisque firing.
  6. Glaze and fire to cone 06–04.
  7. Allow for about 6% shrinkage from mold to fired piece.
  8. Suits all types of plaster molds.
