Seramiksir Dark Brown Engobe AST 468 - 175 g

Dark Brown AST 468 is an engobe that covers the natural color of white and red clay bodies, giving the surface an intense brown, matte, opaque, and natural appearance. It can be applied to leather-hard or completely dry, unfired clay. It creates a smoother surface suitable for decoration and provides a rustic matte finish on its own. Transparent or colored glaze can be applied after bisque firing to produce glossier results 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, consecutive coats for localized decorations, patterns, or large-area coverage.
  • Number of Coats: As the application thickness increases, the coverage and opacity of the dark brown 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 brown 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.
