ptgreek Active Member Jul 24, 2010 #2 delaminant and a sponge to smooth out your final piece. rake and some 99% alcohol prior to that
ptgreek Active Member Jul 24, 2010 #3 if you are talking about smoothing it out to work with it better, use a heat gun to soften the clay ..then place the clay that are going to use in a tray under a heat lamp ..it will be fairly workable then
