Whats the difference between the different types of clay?
This page is under construction (as of 1st June 2007), but please leave your comments below. if you have any views on the subject.
- The weight listed on PMC products is the actual weight of the silver, where as the weight listed on the ACS products is clay weight (silver plus water plus binder). So while the prices of ACS may appear to be cheaper, they are actually pretty much the same.
- PMC3 is slightly stronger than both PMC+ and PMC original after firing. This is because the silver powder that the clay is made form has smaller particles and fuses more evenly upon firing. Therefore PMC3 is more suited to ring making and other items where strength is important. But this is balanced by the fact it's slightly more expensive.
