Porcelain Greenware Cleanup

Cleaning up a porcelain item just out of a mold is a fundamental step in most porcelain projects. This step removes mold lines and minor imperfections in the casting in preparation for high temperature firing. Students will be given a cast greenware item to clean and prepare for firing. Students will be advised in the selection of best tools for the work, and techniques to clean the imperfections to prepare the item for firing. At this step, modifications to the shape of the item can also be made if desired.
