Application Notes

• Base character: In thin and even applications, dark grey, anthracite, and smoky black tones may appear more pronounced.
• Metallic reflections: Silvery or bronze highlights may develop along edges, raised areas, and sections where the glaze remains thinner.
• Thickness effect: In thicker applications, the color may become darker and deeper. Metallic effects may appear more pronounced in thinner areas.
• Texture effect: After firing, the surface may feel smooth to the touch while developing a visually mineral-rich and layered appearance.
• Consistency adjustment: For pouring or dipping applications, water should be added gradually and in a controlled manner to avoid over-diluting the product.
• Clay body selection: The color and chemical composition of the high-fire clay body may affect the tone and intensity of the metallic reflections.
• Care: Hand washing is recommended to preserve the metallic surface and color transitions.
• Safety: Appropriate personal protective equipment should be used during application, and the working area should be adequately ventilated.
• Storage: Keep the container closed and store away from direct sunlight. If settling or thickening occurs, mix thoroughly before application and strain if necessary.
