GCT 278 Black - Ceramingo Glossy Artistic Low-Fire Glaze

GCT 278 Black is an opaque, high-gloss Ceramingo glaze that gives glazed surfaces a deep, bold and uniform black shade. At low-fire temperatures, it creates a smooth, glass-like surface with high coverage that largely conceals the underlying clay color. It can be used to emphasize the sharp lines of modern and industrial designs, create striking contrasts and add pronounced depth to broad surfaces.

Food Safe: This glaze is suitable for surfaces that come into contact with food when proper application and firing conditions are followed.

Application Notes

  • Brush application: Apply 3 coats over white clay to achieve a rich and uniform black appearance. Allow each coat to dry completely and apply successive coats in alternating directions.
  • Coverage: It creates a sharper and glossier black appearance on white clay bodies. Results on red or dark-colored clay bodies may vary depending on the application thickness and clay body.
  • Consistency adjustment: The product is ready to use for brush application. For dipping or spraying, add water gradually and in a controlled manner to achieve the appropriate flow.
  • Mixing: Stir the product before application and regularly during use to distribute the pigments and glaze components evenly across the surface.
  • Surface character: Its glossy finish strongly reflects light across broad surfaces while enhancing the appearance of depth and volume on curved and dynamic forms.
Important Recommendation: The final color and gloss of the glaze may vary depending on the application thickness, clay body, kiln atmosphere, firing schedule and cooling rate. Testing on a sample tile is recommended before the main application.
