Mayco FN-236 Miami Pink - Artistic Low-Fire Glaze 118 ml (R7750)

Mayco FN-236 Miami Pink - Artistic Low-Fire Glaze 118 ml

Mayco FN-236 Miami Pink is distinguished by its vibrant pink color, semi-transparent to semi-opaque coverage, and glossy surface character. Previously offered under the Duncan code IN1032 Miami Pink, this glaze adds color without completely covering the surface texture and underlying design details. Different pink intensities and levels of transparency may develop depending on application thickness and firing temperature.

Technical Data and Application

Color Pairing Suggestions

The glossy and semi-transparent pink color of Mayco FN-236 Miami Pink can be paired with light and neutral tones to create soft and decorative surface compositions:

Application Notes

• Coat application: Applying 3 coats is recommended. As the number of coats increases, the intensity of the pink color and the level of surface coverage may change.
• Coat effect: Thinner applications may produce a lighter and more transparent pink, while thicker applications may result in a richer pink appearance.
• 995°C firing: At approximately 995°C, a glossy, transparent, and vibrant pink surface may develop. The semi-transparent character helps underlying surface textures and decorative designs remain visible.
• 1220°C firing: At approximately 1220°C, the pink color may fade significantly and the glaze may develop a clearer, more transparent appearance.
• Temperature effect: Different firing temperatures between 995°C and 1220°C may alter the color intensity, transparency, and final surface appearance.
• Transparency: The semi-transparent character of the product may help preserve the visibility of relief, carved details, textures, and underglaze decoration.
• High-fire behavior: The surface behavior of the glaze may change at higher temperatures, and deformation may occur on the form. Controlled application and testing are recommended for delicate forms.
• Clay body selection: The pink color may appear cleaner and more distinct on light-colored and white clay bodies. The final color may vary on darker or iron-rich clay bodies.
• Form effect: The glaze may pool in recessed, curved, and horizontal areas, creating richer pink tones or varying levels of transparency.
• Food use: This glaze can be used on food-contact surfaces provided that no cracking, crazing, or similar surface defects occur in the fired glaze.
• Test application: Especially for high-fire applications, preparing a test tile on the intended clay body is recommended to evaluate color fading, increased transparency, and the risk of deformation.
• Safety: Use appropriate personal protective equipment during application and ensure that the work area is adequately ventilated.
• Storage: Keep the container tightly closed and store at room temperature away from direct sunlight.
