Eco Forma is an air cure ceramic system. It stays workable for hours for refinement, then strengthens as it cures, and finishes strong.

Eco Forma is designed as a system. Clay begins the form. Dip strengthens and refines the surface. Image, color, and mixed media become part of the piece. Ceramic Coat builds the ceramic ground. Gloss Top Coat adds clarity, depth, and final finish.

Eco Forma is best for small to medium work, supported forms, and staged building.

For larger or more complex pieces, use support, build in stages, and let areas firm or dry before adding more.

Large unsupported builds made while the clay is soft are not the best use case.

Store clay airtight. Keep liquid products sealed. Do not freeze. Natural materials may separate over time, so stir liquids gently before use.

Eco Forma is designed for decorative work. For functional use, pair the finished piece with a certified liner or coating system suited to the intended purpose. Avoid food contact, dishwasher use, and prolonged soaking unless the final coating system is certified for that use.

Water resistance depends on the finish, use case, and full cure.

Eco Forma is air cure, not fired ceramic.

It is made for small forms, supported work, staged building, and pieces centered on surface work.

For larger or more complex work, use support, build in stages, and let areas firm or dry before adding more.

Eco Forma is designed for decorative work. Avoid food contact, dishwasher use, and prolonged soaking unless the piece is finished with a certified coating system made for that intended use.

Made for small forms, supported work, staged building, and surface work. Build large or complex work in stages.

Drying depends on thickness, form, humidity, and airflow. Small, thin pieces may dry within a few days; larger or thicker pieces may take longer.

Dry on a nonstick surface. Let air reach both sides and flip flat pieces as needed. Support larger or more complex pieces as they dry to reduce stress and cracking.

Once the piece is fully dry, apply Dip to both sides. Let Dip dry fully before moving into water media, Ceramic Coat, Gloss Top Coat, or heavier handling. Do not coat while the piece feels cool, damp, flexible, or darkened with moisture.

Top coats continue to strengthen over time. Let the piece rest before heavy handling and allow extended cure for best durability. Top coats may take up to 30 days to fully harden.

Yes. Eco Forma supports drawing, painting, transfer, and mixed media. Keep layers thin, allow dry time between stages, and finish through the Eco Forma system for the most consistent result.

No, heat tolerance is in development as we expand the system. Eco Forma is not fired ceramic and is not designed for high heat use.

Avoid heat exposure, ovens, dishwashers, and hot functional use unless the finished piece is paired with a certified system made for that purpose.

Eco Forma is versatile, and we encourage experimentation within the system. It is ideal for jewelry, tiles, ornaments, tags, small trays, catchalls, carved relief, mixed media surface work, drawing, painting, transfers, and more.

Right now, Eco Forma is decorative. It is not intended for food contact unless finished with a certified liner system. Water resistance depends on finish and use case.

Apply thin, even layers by dipping or brushing on both sides. Multiple light layers are better than one heavy coat. Let Dip dry fully before moving into water media, Ceramic Coat, or Gloss Top Coat.

If Dip looks cloudy or hazy, the piece may not have been fully dry or the layer may have been too heavy. Let the piece dry longer and use thinner layers.

Use Dip after the piece is fully dry. The surface should no longer feel cool, damp, flexible, or darkened with moisture.

Dip strengthens and refines the surface, and creates a more receptive ground for image, color, Ceramic Coat, and finish.

Haze usually means the piece wasn’t fully dry or the layer was too heavy. Dry longer and use thinner dips.

Yes. A light dab of Dip helps set image and media layers before top coats, keeping the finish level and predictable.

Most pieces do best with multiple thin layers rather than one heavy coat. Thin layers build strength while keeping the surface clean and controlled.

Let Dip dry 24 to 48 hours before top coats. Humidity and thicker forms may take longer.

Runs and edge buildup usually come from heavy dips or not draining long enough. Use lighter dips, drain longer, and dry level.

Eco Forma Earth and Color clay collections are mineral forward. Start with them as your base for soft washes, layered color, and mixed media surface work.

Custom color tools are in development and coming soon.

For now, use the live mineral color clays and keep layers thin through Dip, Ceramic Coat, and finish.

Eco Forma color is designed to stay compatible through Dip and Finish and built for mineral pigments. Start with curated color collections for smoother blends and consistent layered color. Layer color, drawing, and painting, then finish in layers for a ceramic result.

Start with Foundations or Neutrals for a base. Add Signature for stronger saturation. Custom color tools are coming soon; for now, build color in thin layers for smooth, consistent blends.

Custom color tools are in development and are not part of the live system yet. For now, start with the live mineral color clays and layer color through Dip, Ceramic Coat, and finish.

Custom color tools are still in development. When they launch, they will be tested with the Eco Forma clay and finish workflow. For now, use the live mineral color clays and keep color layers thin.

Yes. Eco Forma supports drawing, painting, transfer, and mixed media. Keep layers thin, allow dry time between stages, and finish through the Eco Forma system for the most consistent result.

Eco Forma is designed around mineral pigments and system compatibility. If you use acrylics or other external media, keep layers thin and test your full Dip and Finish workflow first.

Color can slightly change feel depending on pigment load and technique. Start light, build in layers, and keep color additions thin for smoother blends and more consistent handling.

Yes. Eco Forma supports drawing, painting, and mixed media surface design. For the most consistent results, keep layers thin and finish through Dip and Finish.

Yes. Thin with a small amount of water for light layers and washes. Build slowly in thin layers for richer color and smoother blends.

Transfer: Step by Step

1. Print and dry Print on inkjet transfer film. Let it dry fully.
2. Prepare the clay Smooth the area where the image will go. Keep the surface clean and free of dust or oils.
3. Apply Transfer Adhesive Apply a thin, even layer where the image will sit, flush to the surface.
4. Place the film Apply on fresh clay while it is still pliable so it can wrap with curves.
5. Smooth for contact Lightly smooth from the center outward to remove air and ensure even contact.
6. Lift slowly Peel back slowly and evenly. If an edge resists, smooth again and lift more slowly.
7. Dry fully Let the piece dry completely before Dip and top coats.
8. Set with Dip Use a light Dip layer to set the image. Let it dry, then add a second thin layer if needed.
9. Finish in layers Apply top coats in thin layers. Multiple coats build gloss depth or a softer ceramic finish.

Let the piece dry fully, use Dip to set the image in thin layers, then build top coats in thin layers.

Yes. Use Gloss Top Coat for clarity and depth, or Ceramic Coat for a softer ceramic surface. Both build through layered coats.

Yes. You can layer drawing and water media with transfers. Keep layers thin, allow dry time between steps, apply Dip, then finish.

A dab of Dip is recommended to set the image and keep finishing more predictable before top coats.

This is usually from dust, oils, uneven contact, or moving too quickly between layers. Keep the surface clean, ensure full contact, and work in thin layers through Dip and Finish.

Ceramic Coat builds, smooths, and unifies the ceramic surface after Dip, image, color, or mixed media.

Use it before Gloss Top Coat for a smoother, more even finish layer, or leave it as a softer final surface when gloss is not desired.

Use Ceramic Coat after Dip, once image, color, or mixed media layers are fully dry. It helps build, strengthen, and prepare the surface for a final top coat.

Apply a thin, even coat and let it level on its own. Avoid overworking the surface while it is wet.

Yes. Ceramic Coat can be used on its own when you want reinforcement and surface refinement without added depth or gloss.

Ceramic Coat is recommended when you want added surface reinforcement and a smoother base before the final finish layer.

Dip strengthens and refines the surface.

Ceramic Coat builds, smooths, and unifies the ceramic ground.

Gloss Top Coat adds clarity, depth, and final shine.

Apply thin, even coats and allow each layer to dry before the next. Depth and strength come from controlled layers, not one heavy coat.

Top coats continue to strengthen over time and may take up to 30 days to fully harden.

Apply top coats only after the piece is fully dry and Dip has dried.

Thin layers create the best result. Heavy coats can trap moisture, create haze, or cure unevenly.

Apply coatings only after the piece is fully dry and Dip has dried.

Thin layers create the best result. Heavy coats can trap moisture, create haze, or cure unevenly.

Use Gloss Top Coat and build multiple thin coats. Depth comes from layers, not one heavy coat.

Yes, if you choose, but Eco Forma top coats are designed as a resin alternative finish, so most decorative work does not require epoxy.

Eco Forma is decorative by default. Water resistance depends on the finish, use case, and full cure. For food, water, or functional use, pair the piece with a certified liner or coating system made for that purpose.

Bubbles or pinholes can come from agitation, dust, or heavy coats. Apply gently, keep dust off, and build in thin layers.

Cloudiness usually means moisture was trapped underneath or the layer was too heavy. Let the piece dry longer and apply thinner coats.

Top coats continue to strengthen over time. Let the piece rest before heavy handling and allow extended cure for best durability.

Top coats may take up to 30 days to fully harden.

Use thin coats. Most work finishes well with light layers, depending on the look you want.
