How to Add Epoxy to Clay Figurine Sculpture

JORGE BENLLOCH: Now, we are going to put one coating or two of this epoxy. This is very, very strong material. And then there, it's going to give a very good strength to the figurine. Already the clear coat is dry then we are going to do that, and this is going to give extra strength that this clay will need always. And then on top of that, we are going to paint the final color. We have to use this in a very ventilated area or exterior, that's the best. This is flammable and quite toxic and you have to use it, shooting approximately at this distance, not so-- don't breathe much whatever you are shooting. It's the best is to use a mask. I am not using it because I'm in the exterior and we have a quite nice breeze here and it's unnecessary but if you are in enclosed areas, you use a mask always. Okay? That's it. Now it's ready for paint, the color that we choose. Okay?
