This product is low-fire clay that can be fired at 650ºC/1200ºF and is pure silver (99.9%) after firing. The special formula of this product allows for combination with glass, porcelain and ceramic materials, and also suitable for firing with sterling silver findings or wires (SV925 and higher quality recommended). Do not fire a soldered piece with 650/1200 Low Fire Slow Dry Clay as the soldering temperature is lower than the firing temperature. The 650/1200 Low Fire Slow Dry Clay contains a moisturizing binder to keep the clay from drying while working. The moister formula allows for braiding, weaving, and generally gives the artist up to 4 times more working time. Working time may vary by the users environment. It is a wonderful product for those who live in dry climates. [Instructions] This product is water-based. If the clay becomes stiff during shaping, add a few drops of water and knead it well. You can prevent the clay from sticking to your hands by rubbing them with a few drops of olive oil first. Do not use rubber bands to wrap the clay in plastic wrap, they may discolor the clay. Some kilns display a different temperature from the actual inside temperature. It is known that silver will melt at 961ºC/1763ºF. It is recommended that your kiln firing temperature does not exceed 900ºC/1652ºF. Take out only the necessary amount of clay. Place any remaining clay back in the original 650/1200 Low Fire Slow Dry Clay bag (or a zip-loc bag) and keep it in a sealed container to prevent it from drying out. You may combine 650/1200 Low Fire Slow Dry clay with the original silver clay series, but the firing condition should be the same as the original clay series.

You may also combine 650/1200 Low Fire Slow Dry Clay with any 650/1200 series products (the firing condition is the same for both). If the clay is not completely dry, it can crack during firing. Do not bend any fired piece with unreasonable pressure. Keep the clay indoors, out of direct sunlight, and do not store in a refrigerator. For best results use the clay as soon as possible after opening the package.
