&lt;p&gt;Once bronzeclay has been fired - hopefully successfully(see previous post, ahem) - can it be soldered? can it be heated again with silverclay without compromising structural integrity?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I have seen the other post below ask about torch firing silverclay on fired bronzeclay.... is this do-able?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Also, I presume that any further heating/working will remove the colour patina from firing in the activated carbon?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If we wanted to shine the bronze up and then get those beautiful rainbow colours onto it, would we use liver of sulpher? And, to get some of those wonderful crusty blue/green patinas on bronze, what do we need?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thanks again - ciao 4 now!&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Gia.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
