Bonding may be accelerated by heating or over drying. Curing is a function of the size of the shape and its geometry. \u003cbr\u003e An application rate of one gallon per 25 square feet (7.6 m2) of ceramic fiber surface will render a hard surface without completely rigidizing the interior of the ceramic fiber body. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Sheffield Pottery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45114761380162,"sku":"TCR","price":109.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0677\/5508\/2050\/files\/white-TCR-2.jpg?v=1698225302","url":"https:\/\/www.sheffield-pottery.live\/products\/kaowool-rigidizer-gallon","provider":"Sheffield Pottery Inc.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
