Application Notes

• Mixing: Effect particles may settle at the bottom during storage, so the product should be mixed thoroughly before application and at regular intervals throughout use.
• Brush Application: Applying the glaze in 2 or 3 coats is recommended to achieve a deep black base and balanced particle distribution.
• Drying between coats: Allow each coat to dry completely to prevent uneven thickness across the surface.
• Clay body effect: The contrast between the black base and light-colored effects appears more pronounced on white clay bodies, while contrast and speckle density may vary on different clay bodies.
• Dipping application: Keep the mixture continuously agitated to ensure even particle distribution across the surface, and prepare a small test sample before proceeding with the final application.
• Spray application: Check that the particles can pass through the spraying equipment and verify compatibility with the nozzle size being used.
• Storage: Keep the product in its sealed container, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Thoroughly disperse any particles that have settled at the bottom before use.
