Work, roll, cut, shape and fire versatile PMC like any ordinary clay. After firing, designs made with PMC Sterling clay come out of your oven as a sterling silver object.
PMC Sterlingclay has more than twice the strength of original fine silver PMC, ideal for more delicate designs and for pieces that just have to have the added strength.
Because of the copper content in this formula, firing is a two-step process; step one is an open-shelf firing and step two requires a firing pan with activated carbon media.

please note:
Every variety of PMC® is sold by the metal weight, not the weight that includes the water and binders that burn off during firing. You get every gram of precious metal you pay for from PMC.
- PMC® has a strong adverse reaction to contact with aluminum. Do not use aluminum tools or allow your PMC to come into contact with any aluminum object.
