Notes
M2 is a red burning medium temperature stoneware clay. It can be used as-is for many applications requiring deep natural fired color. It has about the right plasticity for plastic machine forming (slightly less than for hand modelling). It burns to an attractive dark red at cone 3-4 and by cone 6 it turns dark brown. At cone 2 it fires to a warm red progressing down to a typical terra cotta color at cone 06-04.
