    Man that silver is so shiney it looks white!!!! very awesome job!!!!













    The riccardo clay really isn't anyting special... the only reason it's a big deal is becuase it's not "legal" in the states.... if it was, it would just get lost in the mix of all the other clays

    Pirex that is an absolutely incredible detail. Man the Scholls products are kickin' it and making a fantastic finish! Damn that Crystal Rock has the paint just shimmering. You do some stunning work and this is probably my favorite yet!!


    Gonna have to completely disagree with Dust on this one. I've used a bunch of clays and Ricardo is the absolute best and easiest to work with. Also it is the only clay that the company had at least an ounce of forethought and pre-cut the clay so I don't have to do it.
