NEW!! Pottery Sponge — Tough, Medium, Fine (Sold Individually)

 

This item ships directly from DiamondCore Tools and may ship separately from the rest of your order. Separate shipping charges may occur.

The essential Pottery Sponge from DiamondCore Tools is an accessory no studio should be without. Available in three varieties of finishes — tough, medium, and fine — these sponges feel like a soft and comfortable extension of your hand.

• Tough sponge (black) is best for shaping while wheel-throwing. Returns to form after compression and maintains firm support.
• Medium sponge (purple) is a good compromise for both throwing and finishing. Squishes slightly after compression, conforms to shapes. Smooth finish.
• Fine sponge (light blue) is best for final touch-ups or delicate pieces. Squishes most after compression, flexible, extremely smooth finish.
