roca rule Posted October 4, 2013 Report Share Posted October 4, 2013 Hello everyboy, my name is roberto and I have decided that i am giving another go to ceramics. i am not that bad, but i would say barely decent at it. Any was i have some leftover bisqueware from about 6-7 years that has some latex and i want to strip it off. Now the latex is amonia based and has been sitting on the pieces all those years and i can't seem to remove it. I know i can probably grind it of, but is there any other ways to remove latex?

Diane Puckett Posted October 4, 2013 Report Share Posted October 4, 2013 I recently heard someone say she refired a piece that had acrylic paint over terra sig. The paint fired off but did leave some color on the terra sig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roca rule Posted October 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2013 the thing is that I want to glaze the whole thing. or do you think that if i fire them at bisque once again they could absorb the glaze? i know wax can be burn off in a stove oven and leave no residue, but I am not aware that you can do the same with latex.

weeble Posted October 5, 2013 Report Share Posted October 5, 2013 Just rebisque them, the latex should burn off just fine. It might stink, but I do this regularly with wax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TJR Posted October 5, 2013 Report Share Posted October 5, 2013 I agree. Just bisque them. I hope your kiln is vented. Don't breath the fumes. TJR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ayjay Posted October 5, 2013 Report Share Posted October 5, 2013 Dry cleaning fluid might work - it's the best solvent for Copydex, which is what I use if I want a latex type resist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
