Application Notes

• Brush application: Three coats over white clay are recommended to achieve a smooth, opaque and velvety matte surface. Allow each coat to dry and apply every coat in a different direction.
• Clay selection: The color appears cleaner and more balanced on white clay bodies. Grogged, speckled or red clay bodies may give the glaze tone and matte surface a more rustic character.
• Dipping and spray application: The product may be too thick for these application methods. Add water gradually and in a controlled manner until the ideal fluidity is achieved.
• Surface preparation: Matte glazes may make lines, dust and surface irregularities more visible. Remove all dust and foreign material from the bisque surface before application.
• Preparation: Mix the product thoroughly before use to distribute the color components evenly and achieve a balanced matte level.
• Application thickness: Thin applications may appear lighter and uneven in some areas. Excessively thick applications may alter the surface texture and increase the risk of cracking or glaze runs.
