OPK 468 Dark Brown - Artistic Low-Fire Glaze

OPK 468 Dark Brown is a low-fire opaque ceramic glaze that combines deep brown, plum, and mink tones. Its highly covering formula softens the dark color character with a balanced pastel effect while creating a glossy, smooth, and uniform surface. When applied in 3 coats over white ceramic clay, it can produce a richer, deeper, and more pronounced mink-brown tone.

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: The product is ready for brush application. Applying 3 coats over white bisque is recommended to achieve a rich, smooth dark brown effect with subtle mink undertones.
  • Drying Between Coats: Allow each coat to dry completely before applying the next. This helps reduce the risk of surface irregularities and variations in color tone.
  • Opaque Character: Its high opacity significantly covers the underlying clay body, helps minimize brush marks, and provides a more balanced appearance across larger surfaces.
  • Clay Body Effect: White ceramic clay produces cleaner and more distinct pastel tones. On red, black, or grogged clay bodies, the color may become darker and develop a more earthy character.
  • Consistency Adjustment: For dipping or spray application, add water gradually and determine the appropriate fluidity through test applications.
  • Mixing: Mix thoroughly from the bottom upward before use to ensure that the pigments are evenly distributed throughout the product.
  • Storage: Keep the product in its sealed container, away from direct sunlight, and protected from freezing.
Important Recommendation: The final color tone, gloss, and opacity may vary depending on the clay body color, application thickness, firing temperature, firing schedule, and kiln atmosphere. Testing on sample tiles using your own clay body and kiln conditions is recommended before proceeding with the final application or batch production.
