Information
When applying Stoneware Dry Crystal glazes, use a cup or ladle to pour the glaze over your piece. While the glaze is wet, you may use a fan brush to evenly distribute the crystals; avoid heavy crystal loading on the bottom.
When crystal glazes have been standing for a while, a hard cake of particles may form at the bottom. This can be dissolved with Epsom salt. See instructions under documents.
Cone 6 oxidation (1230°C): Aurora Green produces a mottled aqua gloss glaze with light brown and large black crystals. As the crystals melt, bursts of blue and brown will develop.
Cone 10 reduction (1280°C): Color changes to a variegated pink/blue/green. Crystals become less pronounced.

TIP: SW-108 Green Tea is the base glaze. For a lighter crystal effect, you may try applying two coats of SW-108 Green Tea with a third coat of SW-146 Aurora Green. Due to the large sized crystals in Aurora Green they often reside in the bottom of the glaze; be sure to stir well or pour the glaze out onto a plate to make them more accessible.
Safety
Can be irritating, harmful to health, and environmentally hazardous.
