Application Notes

• Mixing: Shake or stir the glaze container thoroughly before application to ensure that the coloring components are distributed evenly.
• Surface preparation: Remove all dust, dirt, and residue from the bisque-fired surface. Apply the product to a clean and dry surface.
• Brush application: Since the product is concentrated and ready for brush use, it can be applied directly to the surface. Allow sufficient drying time between coats.
• Baumé adjustment: When using the product with a spray gun or dipping method, adjust its density by adding water gradually and in a controlled manner. A Baumé range of 38-40°Bé is recommended for spray gun application and 40-42°Bé for dipping.
• Spray gun application: Adjust the product to the appropriate Baumé range, mix thoroughly, and spray it onto the surface in even coats.
• Dipping application: Dip the bisque-fired piece into the product in a controlled manner. After removal, allow the excess glaze to drain and the surface moisture to dissipate.
• Drying: The specified surface drying time is 3-4 seconds. Ambient temperature, humidity, bisque absorbency, and application thickness may affect this duration.
• Cellulose use: If adjusting the dipping consistency is difficult, 1% cellulose may be added to the product.
• Cellulose warning: Cellulose may take time to dissolve and can form lumps if it does not dissolve completely. This process is recommended for experienced users.
• Single-color application: The glaze can be applied on its own to create a uniform, glossy cyan turquoise surface.
• Multicolor application: Before combining it with glazes in similar or contrasting shades, check the color transitions and chemical compatibility on a test tile.
• Underglaze decoration: Colored glazes may be opaque or semi-opaque and can reduce the visibility of underglaze designs. If the design needs to remain clearly visible, a transparent glaze should be preferred.
• Overglaze decoration: Once glazing and firing are complete, decoration can be applied using suitable overglaze colors. Follow the recommended firing schedule for the selected overglaze product.
• Firing: Once the surface moisture of the applied glaze has dissipated, fire the piece at 1050°C.
• Safety: Use appropriate personal protective equipment during application and ensure adequate ventilation in the work area. In case of contact with the eyes, rinse thoroughly with plenty of water.
• Storage: Keep the container tightly closed and store it at room temperature away from direct sunlight.
