Mr. Ray Posted July 3, 2020 Report Share Posted July 3, 2020 Hello Forums, and Happy 4th of July weekend to you! I'm on a project using paper clay on a largish platter with some sculptural embellishments . I was wondering if there are advantages to once firing paper clay ? and at what moisture content would you spray glaze a once-fire piece, leather hard or bone dry? On a side note; I was making this a s a Birthday present (July 7) so ..Im late. 16x14 x4 tall added sculptural handles and feet. Thanks in advance.

Sorcery Posted July 6, 2020 Report Share Posted July 6, 2020 There are advantages to once firing everything! I reckon the clay content of the glaze will make a difference between when to glaze it. I glaze bone dry. Tests at leather hard haven't sucked, but only with slip glazes. Mostly clay. Sorce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
