• Compounded of several clays selected for their plastic qualities, coarse fire-clay and grog for texture
• Suitable for throwing and all forms of hand modeling
• AP Non-Toxic in moist form
• CL labeled for safety in dry form
• Firing range of Cone 5-10 with best results at Cone 5
• When fired to Cone 5-6 in oxidation, bisque is a warm buff color peppered with dark spots similar to a reduced stoneware body. When reduction fired, No. 48 becomes a very dark brown.
• Any high fire Amaco® glaze is recommended for use with No. 48 clay. Light matte and transparent glazes allow the dark specks in the clay to show for a peppered effect. Partial glazing, underglazing and use of engobes also create interesting effects.

Clay in moist form presents no hazard.

Preparing Dry Clays
Always mix dry clay in a closed polyethylene bag. Combine one pound of dry clay with four to five ounces of water or 28% water by weight. Expel air in the bag and tie opening securely with string. Knead until clay and water are mixed thoroughly. Aging 24 hours or longer improves plasticity.

Packaging:
Moist Clay: Two 25 lb. blocks of clay in polyethelene bags are packed in a 50 lb. carton.
Dry Clay: 50 lb. dry modeling clay is supplied in multi-wall kraft bag.
