(5.00)Michelle Marshall Published Sunday, 7 January 2024 This is my new favorite clay. I used to use Primo Pro white paper clay and it was a lot more expensive and did not fire to a brilliant whie. It is more grey. Macs white actually fire a true white and is lovely to work with. I use it for both hand building and throwing.
