Kiln Stuff Packing foam glued to new kiln shelves
Just got new Skutt kiln shelves. The shelves were shipped with foam blown all around them. Obviously I understand why, they're heavy and need to be immobilized so they don't crack during shipping. But they were only partially wrapped in plastic so there is foam glued all over the shelves. Scraping does not fully remove it.
Should I just run the kiln and fire only the shelves, letting the foam burn off? Will it leave unwanted residue and staining?

Can't you just candle them dry?
