neilestrick Posted March 1, 2016 Report Share Posted March 1, 2016 If it hasn't been fired yet, yes. Sort of. It may leave a bit of residue that won't wash off completely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Campbell Posted March 1, 2016 Report Share Posted March 1, 2016 Blue is a hard one to get rid of but you can soak it in soapy water and scrub with a brush ... Even black comes off easier than blue! Good luck with it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pugaboo Posted March 1, 2016 Report Share Posted March 1, 2016 At what stage did you paint it? Bone dry or bisqued? Blue is one of the worst colors to remove entirely as it stains the clay body. That said: You can wipe most of it off if it is bone dry but you will risk wetting your piece a lot and having it crack or lose any texture you have. You can even gently scrape away some of the remaining residue with a dental tool. At the bisque stage you can run the piece under the water in the sink and scrub off with a kitchen scrubby if needed. It will most likely still leave a stain of blue on the piece. If you go this route you will need to let the piece dry for several days since the bisque is going to sow up a lot of water. Good luck and let us know what worked! T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
