This is a query for a friend.She relocated recently and several
bricks in her electric kiln cracked in the move.
She wants to know if "injecting" kiln cement into the cracks with a
syringe would work.
Second query:
She has just bought a raku kiln lined with fibrefax, wants to know if
she puts in a double layer of fibrefax, would she be able to use same
for her glass making eg slumping glass into clay moulds to make
bowls.
Any info would be gratefully received,
