Ozz Glaze - DD-310 Roma Artistic Low Fire Glaze (R26069)

OZZ GLAZE DD-310 Rome - Artistic Low-Fire Glaze

OZZ GLAZE DD-310 Rome is an artistic low-fire glaze that creates natural-stone transitions in antique beige, cream and warm earth tones. Its fluid and reactive character allows it to pool in recessed, curved and textured areas of the form, increasing the color intensity. After firing, it produces a surface with speckles and mottling that vary depending on application thickness and the clay body used, reminiscent of travertine and marble textures.

Application Notes

• Mixing: Mix the product regularly before and during application to ensure an even distribution of the coloring and speckle-forming 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 beige and cream tones, while dark earth tones and reactive mottling may intensify in thicker areas.
• Speckle effect: The density and distribution of the surface speckles may vary depending on application thickness, clay body and firing schedule.
• Reactive character: The intensity of the color transitions and natural-stone appearance may vary depending on 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 earth tones, while edges and raised areas may appear lighter.
• Clay body selection: The color and surface texture of different low-fire clay bodies may affect the appearance of the beige tones and speckles.
• 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.
