Seramiksir Coral Engobe AST 508 - 175 g

Coral AST 508 is an engobe that covers the natural color of white and red clay bodies, giving the surface a warm coral, matte, opaque, and vibrant appearance. It can be applied to leather-hard or completely dry, unfired clay. It creates a smoother surface suitable for decoration and provides a natural matte finish on its own. Transparent or artistic glaze can be applied after bisque firing to produce glossier surfaces with greater visual depth.

Food Safety: Before using this product on food-contact pieces, it is recommended to test the glaze under your own application and firing conditions.

Application Notes

  • Brush Application: Apply in even coats for localized decorations, patterns, or large-area coverage.
  • Number of Coats: As the application thickness increases, the coverage and opacity of the coral color may become stronger. Avoid excessively thick applications.
  • Clay Body Selection: Suitable for use with white and red clay bodies. The color of the clay body may affect the final coral tone.
  • Dipping and Pouring: Dipping produces a more uniform, smooth surface without brush marks.
  • Mixing: Mix the product thoroughly before and during application to ensure an even distribution of the engobe components.
  • Storage: Store at room temperature in tightly sealed packaging, away from direct sunlight.
Important Recommendation: The appearance of the engobe may vary depending on application thickness, clay body, and firing schedule. Testing on a test tile before the main application is recommended, particularly for vertical forms, to evaluate application behavior and the final surface result.
