Application Notes

• Mixing: Stir the product regularly before and during application to ensure that the color-producing components remain evenly distributed.

• First coat: Apply the first coat evenly and allow it to dry sufficiently before applying the second coat.
• Coat application: Apply at least 2 coats by brush to achieve balanced color, opacity and even surface development.
• 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 areas, corners and horizontal sections.
• Color effect: The intensity of the blue shade and the surface appearance may vary between thinly and thickly applied areas.

• Clay body selection: The color and composition of the clay body may affect the intensity of the blue shade and the surface appearance after firing.
• Glaze combinations: Before combining with other glazes, test the color transitions and surface compatibility on a test tile.
