Art Clay Silver New Formula x 10 gr

Art clay Silver is composed of very fine silver powder, an organic binder and water.
Once dry, the shaped object can be fused with heat (650°C), removing the water and binder, leaving 99.9% pure silver.
The silver object can then be polished.
We advise you to create simple models at first, with a little practice, then let your imagination run wild...
