Application Notes

• Brush application: Apply 2-5 coats for a balanced light green base and pronounced speckle development. Allow the surface to dry completely between coats.
• Coat effect: With 3-4 coats, the dark green crystalline speckles may develop larger and more densely. With thinner applications, the speckled effect may be more subtle.
• Clay body selection: On white and light-colored clay bodies, the contrast between the light green base and dark speckles may become more pronounced.
• Reactive character: The size and distribution of the speckles and the blooming effect may vary depending on firing temperature, kiln atmosphere, hold time, and cooling rate.
• Flow behavior: Surface movement may increase with thicker applications. A controlled and thinner application is recommended near the bottom of vertical forms.
• Preparation: Mix the glaze thoroughly before use to ensure even distribution of the crystal-forming particles and pigments.
