Application Notes

• Mixing: The product should be stirred thoroughly before and regularly during application to ensure that the color-producing components remain evenly distributed.
• Surface preparation: The bisque surface to be glazed should be clean, dry, free from grease, and thoroughly dust-free.
• First coat: Apply the first coat evenly across the surface and allow it to dry sufficiently before applying the second coat.
• Coat application: When applying with a brush, apply at least 2 coats to achieve balanced color, opacity, and an even surface finish.
• Coat direction: Coats may be applied in different directions to help minimize brush marks and variations in coverage.
• Thickness control: Ensure that the coats are applied evenly across the form and avoid excessive glaze accumulation in recessed, corner, and horizontal areas.
• Color effect: The intensity of the yellow tone and the surface appearance may vary between areas with thinner and thicker glaze application.
• Form effect: Glaze thickness may increase in recessed, curved, and horizontal areas, creating more intense yellow tones.
• Firing: The product can be fired between 1020°C and 1100°C. The recommended ideal firing range is 1040°C to 1050°C.
• Clay body selection: The color and composition of the clay body may affect the intensity and appearance of the butter-yellow tone after firing.
• Glaze combinations: Before combining with other glazes, color transitions and surface compatibility should be evaluated on a test tile.
• Surface inspection: For pieces intended for serving hot foods, ensure that the glazed surface is free from cracks or crazing.
• Monitoring during use: If cracks or crazing develop on the glazed surface during use, the piece should no longer be used for food service.
• Care: Hand washing is recommended to help preserve the glazed surface and make it easier to monitor for possible cracking or crazing.
• Safety: Appropriate personal protective equipment should be used during application, and the working area should be adequately ventilated.
• Storage: Keep the container tightly closed and store at room temperature away from direct sunlight.
