Application Notes

• Brush application: Applying 3 coats over white clay is recommended to achieve the characteristic green, pink and red variegation. Allow the surface to dry between coats and apply each coat in a different direction.
• Flow control: Due to its fluid character, the glaze may move downward on vertical surfaces and in thick applications. Apply more thinly near the base to prevent glaze from pooling around the lower part of the form.
• Clay body selection: Pastel tones appear fresher and more pronounced on white casting and pottery clay bodies. The intensity of the green and red variegation may change on different clay colors.
• Dipping and spraying: Add 5-10% water gradually and in a controlled manner to achieve the appropriate flow. Determine the dilution ratio on a test tile.
• Preparation: Shake or mix the product thoroughly before use to distribute the pigments evenly and produce balanced color transitions.
• Application thickness: Colors may appear lighter and calmer in thin applications. Red variegation, flow and surface movement may become more pronounced in thick applications.
