OZZ GLAZE DD-220 Mare is an artistic low-fire glaze that creates reactive transitions in sea-green and emerald tones. Its fluid character allows it to pool in recessed, curved and textured areas of the form, producing deeper green shades. After firing, it develops a dynamic surface reminiscent of rippling water, varying according to application thickness and the clay body used.

Food Safe: This glaze is suitable for surfaces that come into contact with food when proper application and firing conditions are followed.

Flow Warning: This product is a fluid artistic glaze. Leave an unglazed safety margin near the base of vertical forms and prevent the glaze from reaching the kiln shelf during firing.

Application Notes

Mixing: Mix the product regularly before and during application to ensure an even distribution of the coloring and reactive components.
Coat application: For brush application, apply 2-3 even coats to the bisque-fired surface, allowing sufficient drying time between coats.
Thickness effect: Thinner areas may display lighter sea-green tones, while dark green and emerald tones may intensify in thicker areas.
Reactive character: The intensity of the color transitions and rippling-water appearance may vary depending on application thickness, peak temperature, kiln atmosphere and cooling schedule.
Flow control: Consider the glaze’s downward movement on vertical forms and apply it more thinly around the lower sections and base of the piece.
Kiln shelf protection: Fire the piece on a catch plate or suitable kiln shelf separator to protect against possible glaze runs.
Dilution: For spray and dipping applications, add water in small increments, mix the product after each addition and avoid over-dilution.
Form effect: The glaze may pool in recessed, curved and textured areas, creating deeper green tones, while edges and raised areas may display lighter transitions.
Clay body selection: The color and surface texture of different low-fire clay bodies may affect the appearance of the sea-green and emerald tones.
Surface preparation: Remove all dust and residue from the bisque-fired surface before application.
Glaze combinations: Before combining with other glazes, test chemical compatibility, color transitions and the amount of flow on a test tile.
Safety: Use appropriate personal protective equipment during application and ensure that the workspace is adequately ventilated.
Storage: Keep the container tightly closed and store at room temperature, away from direct sunlight.

Important Recommendation: The intensity of the sea-green and emerald tones, the distribution of the reactive transitions and the amount of glaze flow may vary depending on application thickness, clay body, peak temperature, kiln atmosphere and cooling schedule. Preparing vertical and horizontal test tiles with different coat thicknesses is recommended before the main application.
