Excellent so far
Have been casting using this slip recently and it releases nicely from my moulds. Am waiting on a kiln load to fire it but so far so good it has a lovely smooth finish.

Does this slip get darker the higher it's fired?
Jo from United Kingdom
Yes, like any terracotta the higher it is fired the darker the body will become.

Would this product withstand a temperature of 1280?
Thanks.
James from France
This clay should withstand this temperature however it is important to note that getting a glaze to work along with the terracotta at such a high temperature may prove a little more difficult, I would recommend doing a small test before committing to final work, hope this helps.

Hello,
this slip seems to be very slow. It takes an hour to cast a 3-4 mm thickness. Is it normal?
Anna from United Kingdom
Yes terracotta is not a very good casting slip and does take a long time it has to do with the ingredients, unfortunately there is no solution to the long casting time.
