Application Notes

• Product preparation: Mix the product thoroughly before application until a uniform consistency is achieved.
• Brush application: Apply the glaze directly with a brush to a clean, dry, bisque-fired surface. Allow each coat to dry before applying the next one.
• Spray application and dipping: Add 5-10% water according to the required application consistency. Add water gradually and in a controlled manner.
• Crackle character: The density of the crackle pattern may vary depending on application thickness, clay body, and firing schedule.
• Flow: This product is fluid and may move toward the base on vertical and angled forms, particularly when fired at 1040°C and above.
• Application thickness: Avoid excessive glaze accumulation near the base and apply a thinner coating in these areas.
• Clay body selection: Turquoise color and crackle texture appear lighter, brighter, and more pronounced on white clay.
• Antique appearance: After firing, ink may be applied decoratively to darken and accentuate the crackle pattern.
• Storage: Keep the container tightly closed at room temperature and away from direct sunlight.
• Safety: Use appropriate protective equipment during application and keep the product out of reach of children.
