Bonlife A-128 Topaz Artistic Low-Fire Glaze (R25227)

A-128 Topaz Artistic Low-Fire Glaze

A-128 Topaz is a mineral-inspired artistic low-fire glaze that creates a natural stone appearance with its golden-brown base and matte, slightly textured surface. Microcrystalline formations and bluish-gray speckles that develop during firing give ceramic forms a layered, stone-like surface.

Recommended Color Combinations

Application Notes

• Brush application: Apply 2-5 coats for a balanced mineral texture and stone-like appearance. Allow the surface to dry completely between coats.
• Coat effect: As the number of coats increases, the golden-brown base may become richer, while the microcrystalline formations and surface speckles may become more pronounced.
• Clay body selection: On white and light-colored clay bodies, the golden topaz tones, bluish-gray speckles, and mineral texture may appear clearer and more defined.
• Firing effect: Surface texture, crystal distribution, and color transitions may vary depending on firing temperature, kiln atmosphere, hold time, and cooling rate.
• Flow behavior: Balanced and even coats are recommended. Excessively thick applications may cause uneven surface development and increased glaze movement.
• Preparation: Mix the glaze thoroughly before use to ensure even distribution of crystalline particles and mineral pigments.
