Metal Magic - Silver Clay
Metal Magic Silver Clay


 
Kiln Fire: 1600°F / 871°C - 90 minutes
Shrinkage: 20-25%

This product is 80% fine silver and 20% binder by weight, and can shrink up to 25% during firing in comparison to other brands of .999 silver clay that shrink 10-15%. Any object like cubic zirconia, lab created gemstones or findings can be fired in place as long as they can withstand the kiln firing temperature of 1600°F degrees for 30 to 90 minutes. We do not recommend this metal clay for rings or findings. Rings and findings would benefit from .925 or .900 silver for durability and strength. This form is excellent for highlighting details and texture. The shrink factor can be used as a design device to scale down larger forms or enhance details.

TechSpecs:


Uses This form of silver metal clay can be used to craft any type of item, although we recommend against using it for ring making due to its 25% high rate of shrinkage.
Workability Metal Magic Silver Clay dries slowly, offering the artist a long work time before it begins to dry. Clay may seem hard in the packaging before use. Lubricate hands with a non-stick product, like Claymate or Slik, and work the ball of clay for a few minutes in a rolling motion. It will turn soft and pliable. Do not add water unless you are making slip. To keep the clay moist and usable, return unused clay to its original packaging or store in a Clay Hydrator. Dry clay overnight before firing, dry on a hot plate or dehydrator at a maximum temperature of 175ºF for 30 minutes. Drying temperatures above 175ºF will begin to burn off the binding agents, which may cause distortion to your piece. After firing, conventional jewelry tools can be used to finish your piece by burnishing, tumbling or applying a patina and polish.
Embedded Objects Any object, i.e. Cubic Zirconia, lab created gemstones, findings, etc., can be fired in place as long as they can withstand the kiln firing temperature of 1600ºF for 30 to 90 minutes. Check out our Gemstone Firing Guide for details on a specific stone. Some more sensitive stones may require a carbon firing.
