neilestrick Posted August 30, 2012 Report Share Posted August 30, 2012 Not really. There's such a small amount of paper burning out that it shouldn't noticeably affect the element life, especially if the kiln is vented. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcia Selsor Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 There can be some off gassing but keep the lid cracked or vent during this period. I fired paper clay in my old oval for years without any problems. Marcia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
