Ceramingo GC 2006 Moss - Artistic Low-Fire Glaze (R22753)

GC 2006 Moss - Artistic Low-Fire Glaze

GC 2006 Moss is a distinctive, highly fluid artistic glaze that brings deep forest greens and moss-like textures to pottery surfaces. Its reactive character pools in recessed areas to produce rich green tones, while a micro-crackle effect gives the surface a natural, organic, and antique appearance. Its dynamic behavior may create unique effects and varied surface transitions with every firing.

Application Notes

• Brush application: The product is supplied ready to use at a consistency suitable for brush application. Applying 3 coats on white clay is recommended to achieve the characteristic depth and moss effect.
• Coat application: Allow each coat to dry. Apply each new coat in a different direction to achieve a more balanced covering.
• Flow control: Due to its high fluidity, leave a sufficient unglazed safety margin near the base of vertical forms. The risk of running may increase with thicker applications.
• Firing effect: At approximately 1040°C, the glaze may become more fluid and its artistic transitions may become more pronounced.
• Dipping and spray application: Adjust the consistency by adding approximately 5-10% water. Add water gradually and preserve the glaze’s coverage.
• Clay body selection: Green tones appear brighter and more vivid on white clay. Dark or grogged clay bodies may produce darker, more rustic and mysterious results.
• Effect variation: Clay color, number of coats, application thickness, and firing conditions may alter the color transitions, crackle pattern, and degree of flow.
