And, it absorbs water well to use with clay. Review: First time every doing this but I needed to make a slab to recycle my giant bin of clay. I did this on my one hour lunch break and it even dried within that time frame. I’m gonna give it a few more days to dry before testing it out with my clay. I have high hopes. It arrived in 2 separate deliveries in 12.5 pound bags (50 pounds total). I actually enjoy that they are separately packaged. I used one bag in a tub of water to make my board. I didn’t use exact measurements or anything kinda just eyeballed it cuz that’s how I roll. It’s been a few hours and it’s pretty dry. I think it’s worth the endeavor! ## Features - Model Making Material, Mold, Theme Mold, Model, Handmold - Sculpting Supplies - When mixed with water @ 70% water by weight and allowed to slake for one minute then mixed energetically till lump free it will set up in 30 minutes ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B06Y4D43W9 | | Brand | AMACO | | Color | white | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (133) | | Date First Available | 6 November 2017 | | Item Weight | 22.7 Kilograms | | Material | Plaster | | Model Number | 52803P | | Product Dimensions | 48.26 x 35.56 x 12.7 cm; 22.68 kg | | Special Features | Quick-Setting | ## Product Details - **Age range (description):** Adult - **Brand:** AMACO - **Colour:** white - **Item weight:** 22.68 kg - **Material:** Plaster ## Images ![Pottery Plaster, 50 lbs. - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/710yFhYzJlS.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: does it break easy? for example if I want to do trinket trays** A: This is stronger than plaster of Paris. You'll want to have the right ratio of powder to water based on your form/mold **Q: Can I use this for Lost Wax casting?** A: I can not positively answer yes or no, but from what I do know, I really think the answer would be, yes. I have not used it for that, but I have viewed someone cast a piece of metal jewelry at a festival. The mold looked just like the plaster ceramics molds I make from this plaster. I didn't ask him. You can only use the mold once as it is shattered when it is thrown into a bucket of water to quench the heat from casting. It would be imperative that you have the proper centrifugal cast equipment / set up to make sure the metal reaches the very bottom while still liquid. Good luck. **Q: Is this the same as hydro cal gypsum?** A: No. Hydrocal is a different mix. Same manufacturer though. **Q: Could this be used for pouring into a mold and then firing in a Kiln?** A: No this is not for a kiln firing. In a mold usage it is fine, but only to be air dried. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by S***R on 26 January 2026* The plaster was great! Very strong, no are bubbles.

I make plaster craft items so the smaller bags are easier to handle. I have used this brand for many years and prefer it over others for its consistency in quality. ## Frequently Bought Together - AMACO Pottery Plaster, 50 lbs. - Edward Tools Paint and Mud Mixer for Drill - Mixes 1 to 3 Gallons - 15 3/4" Length - 5/16" Hex Shaft - Zinc Plated Steel - Reinforced Weld - Non Slip Hex Head - Easy Clean - Paint Mixer Attachment - QEP 7-1/2" x 5-1/2" Extra Large Grouting, Cleaning and Washing Sponge 3 Count (Pack of 1) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.mx/products/276955997-pottery-plaster-50-lbs](https://www.desertcart.mx/products/276955997-pottery-plaster-50-lbs) --- *Product available on Desertcart Mexico* *Store origin: MX* *Last updated: 2026-05-25*
