Art Clay Silver 650 Paste comes in the consistency of melted ice cream and you should only transfer the amount needed from the jar to a small tray and dilute with water to create desired thickness.
The only difference between Paste type and Clay type is the amount of water portion in the mixture.
It is used in several ways:
-
As a glue to join two piece of dry or wet clay together.
-
As a gap-filler for pits and cracks that appear in dried pieces.
-
To attach silver findings (screw eyes, bailbacks, brooch findings, etc.) to dried or wet clay pieces. During firing, the normal contraction of the clay bonds the findings.
-
When applied in separate layers onto organic forms such as leaves, dried flowers, paper-origami, etc, the Paste type creates a perfect impression of the form.
The binding agent is produced from harmless pulp fiber. The low-fire clay can be fired from 1200 degF / 650 degC with shrinkage of only 8-9%, and allows for combining with glass, porcelain and ceramic materials. Successful firing with Kiln, Torch, or Gas Stovetop. Use for fill-ins, or build up for texture. Paste over leaves or other organics for great shapes and textures.
