I mixed some dark red clay slip last night. Got it just right ... then proceeded to spill half the container all over my work table, chair, and floor. I wiped and cleaned and there is still a crime scene in my studio. >.< Guinea: Can you mix it in the driveway?

I've used slip before but now heavily rely on black iron oxide stain. The iron oxide is used to bring out detail and imperfections.

I was using red oxide but it's so messy if you don't want it on the whole item ...
