Disposal of slip and glazes?

Jan 25, 2005 1 Replies

Old ceramic slip, paints and glazes has filled my garage for years...frozen and thawed many times. Most of the paint has dried in the jars and the glaze and slip have separated. How can I dispose of this stuff? At least I was able to sell the molds and kiln. Thanks



Old glazes, especially low-fire, are likely to contain lead. You may need to take them to a toxic disposal facility. Some localities have "toxics day" one Saturday a month, etc, and set up operations in a local shopping center parking lot for the day. A call to City Hall will probably get you this information.

Hope this helps!
