Description

Mayco’s stoneware glazes are preferably applied with a soft fan brush onto the bisque-fired ware. Fire between cone 5 and cone 6 (1200°C - 1230°C). Many colors also perform very well at higher temperatures — see images; test before applying on production pieces. 473 ml. Ready to use.

NOTE: Due to varying results, Mayco has conducted extensive testing on SW-219. This product has a wide range of variations. The clay body, application, firing process, and temperature affect the firing result. They recommend testing Cone 5 (1222°C/2232°F) without hold time in a lightly packed kiln on a white stoneware clay with texture. If you cannot test and/or accept varying results, they advise against using this glaze. If you are not satisfied with the result, you can combine this glaze with other Mayco glazes.

Information

Cone 6 oxidation (1230°C): Opal Lustre is a glossy, semi-opaque glaze that displays variegated shades of blues, greens, and purples. Breaks warm brown over texture.

Cone 10 reduction (1280°C): Color flattens, and warm undertones come through.

TIP: This glaze is semi-fluid at 3 coats. Additional coats or increased application thickness may result in movement. Can be used in oxidation or reduction firings. Results may vary. The choice of clay body, thickness of application, firing process, and temperature will greatly affect the fired results. Always test your application on your clay body in your kiln environment.
