Description
Introducing our new Cone 5 B-Mix with Speckles. This clay has the same working properties as your favorite B Mix WC-401. This is a mid temperature, smooth, porcelaneous stoneware that is very plastic and workable. This clay prefers slow drying and ample compression on rims and bottoms to avoid cracks.

Glazes:
We have tested B-Mix with specks, WC 408 with excellent results on many of our glaze series.
- MS Series (Moroccan Sand)
- Many of the MS series have shown fantastic results. Glaze fit is very compatible with BMix with specks.
- Crackle series
- The crackle series has some of the more interesting results as the glaze causes the specks to bleed and turn purplish
- Crystalline Firing
- Mystic series
- The Mystic series tends to cover the specks unless using WC-104 or WC-103
