5 lbs. White Crystal Glaze (Dry Material)
Description: This glaze is gorgeous fired to cone 10 in an electric kiln. It's just a white glaze on it's own. We recommend dipping, or spraying it, and then spraying a light spray of another glaze into it to make it shift color and create crystals. As seen in the examples.
Note 1: This glaze (and all of the glazes on this website) is shown on Coleman Porcelain.
Note2: We also Only Bisque The Porcelain to Cone 010 !!! This is Very Important.
Mixing Directions: Add water and screen 2 x's through an 80 Mesh Screen.
You'll want it to be at 40-42 on the Hydrometer. (this scale is located on the other side of the hydrometer - lol).
Application: As with All of my Crystal Glazes: Dip and hold for a count of 3. You can "over-spray other colors into the surface you dipped. But, you have to have a dipped surface to start with. Not too thick, not too thin. Remember to Test First before putting any unfamiliar glaze onto something important.
Firing Instructions: If you're firing to cone 10 electric - email me for the suggested program. It's Not A Fancy Soak and Hold Program. I've included our 4 segment program we use on our Bartlett Controller on our 8 cu ft Geil Electric Kiln. If you're firing a top loading electric kiln that is wider than 18" on the lid - you're loosing a lot more heat out the lid and your firing time might be different to reach temp. Please TEST fire on work that's not important to dial-in the best program. For our firing - Cone 10 is just tipping over, cone 9 is down.
