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): Sandstone is a matte, off-white glaze that contains a variety of brown crystals that melt during the firing. Thicker application and heavy crystal concentration will produce more glossy blue/purple variation.

Cone 10 reduction (1280°C): Color darkens. Glossy blue/purples become more prominent.

TIP: SW-172 Macadamia is the base glaze. For a lighter crystal effect, you may try applying two coats of SW-172 Macadamia with a third coat of SW-176 Sandstone.

Safety 

Can be irritating, harmful to health, and environmentally hazardous.
