Nechamkin's Made in the USA Organic Pine Rosin Based Green Chaser's Pitch is an organic pine rosin based pitch. Blacksmiths, Sculptors, Armorers and jewelers alike have found this type of pitch suitable for years. It is excellent for medium to high relief work and can be worked slightly warm using a heat gun. In cold temperature this pitch will release metal. For deeper repousse keep the pitch a little warmer, for crisper work like planishing, keep the pitch a little cooler.

*Please Note: It takes 2 of 125.288 to fill one bowl*

There are many postings on the web and YouTube on how to use pitch (be sure to check out Liza Nechamkin on YouTube). Below are just a couple we have found with links:

Here is a great posting on using pitch and pitch bowls from Brian Meek.
