USG No. 1 Pottery Plaster is engineered for absorbent ceramic working molds rather than high-strength finished gypsum castings. It is the appropriate choice for pottery and ceramic slip casting, jiggering, production molds, plaster bats and similar studio applications where controlled absorption and mold life matter. For finished decorative gypsum objects, compare Hydrocal White or Hydro-Stone instead. Browse the full USG Plaster & Gypsum Cement collection.
