Hi fellow clay artists!
Some time ago I read about a glue (on this site) specifically recommended
for repairs on fired work, it dries without a shiny finish like most
epoxies.
This is for use on NON functional work.
I tried the archives but can't make it thru the search engine properly.
If anyone has a suggestion more effective that crazy glue or epoxy, I would
be one happy potter.
Thanks!

Hi Merill,
The Glue-of-choice used to be "Eastman 9-10" I think, succeeded by a wider
range of the Cyanoacrylates who enjoy various open-times or consistancies...
Epoxies are typically far too thick or viscous to my recollections...
Watch your fingers when assembleing...(that tiny oversights of spills do not
glue your fingers to the item...)
In fact, break a few things to practice on before tackleing the one you are
serious about...
Have fun..!
Best wishes,
Phil
