Repairing a bisque ware.

Started this discussion. Last reply by Norm Stuart Jul 29, 2014. 4 Replies

Not really a glaze question. However would really like to know if one can repair a crack (not a S crack) in a bisqued platter with paper clay?

Profile Information

What is your experience with ceramics in general. (Long answer encouraged)
At the age of 45, after taking premature retirement from my teaching job at the university of Lucknow, I started getting involved in ceramics as a hobby. However 8 years down the line it has become an obsession and I can't Imagine life without clay
What is your current involvement with electric fired ceramics? (long answer encouraged)
Absolutely zero. I have a gas fired kiln, which gives amazing results in both cone 6 and cone 8-10.
