rebuilding kiln...question
I'm in the process of rebuilding one of my kilns and would appreciate advice on what type of high temp mortar to use and where to purchase it. Thanks, Avery

High temperature refractory cement should be available from any refractory supplier, but if you can't find it, McMaster-Carr carries it. Go to http://www.mcmaster.com and put 9368K4 in the window and click on "find". Look at the catalog page and you'll see "firebrick bonding mortar" and "high temperature refractory cement".

Here's some info on it.

Sairbond is another one , a dry product.
Seattle Pottery sells it too, but you might find it at a local pottery supply.
