Mayco Clay Mender - Low Fire - 59ml

Mayco Clay Mender (Low Fire) 59ml

• Clay Mender is an “enhanced slip” that is intended to be used to repair and/or add attachments to greenware or bisque.

• Use on greenware or bisque to mend, fuse and correct clay defects. Simply moisten pieces with water-no extra adhesive required!

•  The AC-306 mender is low fire and is not for mid range. It is recommended for Cone 04-06 firing (1000-1060c).

  FOR REPAIRS & ATTACHMENTS
  More than ordinary slip, the enhanced formula creates a stronger bond for repairs and attachments. It can be used on bisque to join two pieces together, but is primarily for greenware use.

  GENERAL USE
  Scoring the location where an attachment will be placed will strengthen the bond. Use a needle tool, toothpick, etc. to score the surface. Apply a generous coat of AC-306 and immediately and firmly press the pieces together, holding them into place for 10-20 seconds until they become affixed. Let the area dry. After drying, the areas can then be sanded and smoothed to prepare for decoration. A top dressing of an underglaze may be needed. Clay Mender sometimes will show a slightly different color than the clay being used. There are times when the glaze will not readily adhere to the mended area and the top dressing of an underglaze will overcome this problem. Fire to shelf cone 04. Do not spray.
