Plastic ability of clay to be worked and resist cracking
The paint is already damaged by weather and sunlightUse some mild soap and water and wash it by hand if you're worriedOtherwise pressure wash itIt can be painted if you clean it well first to remove all the oxidized paint.
hello, to clean your aluminum siding, you can buy a product made to do so or you can make one yourself with vinegar and borax
soap (( blue dawn dish/potspans)) and water and a towel - not a scrub brush - anything else will damage the paint try a small spot - if that works for you and it should then continue on -
You are dealing with two problems; on the sides other than north, the paint is aged and the weather has taken its toll on the paintOn the north side, where there is no sun, moisture has induced microbial growthWashing the entire house using a pressure washer will help clean off the microbial growth and the chalking paint; however you will then need to paint the siding with a good quality paint designed for aluminum sidingGo to a good quality paint store for paint selection and advice on pretreatment and pressure washing.
I am assuming you are talking about ceramic clay Some people add paper pulp A little bit helps I prefer a higher amount of paper The mixture has a tendency to grow mold black or green There are all kinds of legends of people adding things to clay to improve workability I know some people that like to freeze clay some say freezing spoils clay Freezing clay is easy during winter Before adding things to the clay What properties did you choose the clay for? I have used 2 clays that were very short but they had special properties A translucent porcelain - I have added paper to this A flame-ware clay A clay that withstands thermal shock - I would never add paper to this
