Penguin Pottery Potter's Water, sometimes referred to as magic water, is useful when you need to attach one piece of clay to another. For instance, it is used to attach handles, prevent cracking and enhance bonding strength at clay attachment points.
HELPS BOND CLAY: Penguin Pottery Potter's Water, sometimes referred to as magic water, is useful when you need to attach one piece of clay to another. For instance, it is used to attach handles, prevent cracking and enhance bonding strength at clay attachment points.
ATTACH HANDLES: handles can be challenging because either the pot of the handle might be slightly drier than the other, creating cracks or detachment. Potter's Water helps establish a strong bond when attaching handles.
COIL BUILDING: when handbuilding clay pots using rolled coils, you can use Potter's Water to avoid having to press and blend the coils together. Potter's Water helps you maintain the distinct coil appearance without using excessive pressure, and enhances the bond between the coils.
ATTACH CLAY SLABS: slabs of clay are prone to cracking at the seams during drying or firing. By using Potter's Water instead of regular water or slip, you can achieve a stronger bond and prevent these cracks.
