Hello 👋🏻 there are some mugs that I glazed with transparent glaze and did some designs in underglaze but didn’t fire yet because the first batch I fired had some issues with the brush on glaze I used. Can I clean the one’s I didn’t fire yet?

Question about plaster molds: how many pieces do you usually can get done in a day with just one mold? I have a specific mug that is taking me so long to get done and get every piece the same that I think it would be more productive to do a mold to have consistency in every piece
