OPK 588 Red Brown - Artistic Low-Fire Glaze

OPK 588 Red Brown is a low-fire opaque ceramic glaze that combines the warm undertones of red with earthy brown tones. Its highly covering formula brings the red-brown color to the surface with a soft pastel character while creating a glossy, balanced, and uniform appearance. When applied in 3 coats over white ceramic clay, it can produce a cleaner, richer, and smoother 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 a white bisque surface is recommended to achieve a rich, smooth, and uniform mink-brown effect.
  • Drying Between Coats: Allow each coat to dry completely before applying the next. This helps reduce the risk of surface irregularities and color variations.
  • Opaque Character: Its high opacity substantially covers the underlying clay body, helps minimize brush marks, and creates a more balanced appearance across larger surfaces.
  • Clay Body Effect: White ceramic clay produces cleaner and more pastel tones. On red, dark, or grogged clay bodies, the color may become slightly darker and develop a more earthy character.
  • Consistency Adjustment: For dipping or spray applications, add water gradually and determine the appropriate fluidity through test applications.
  • Mixing: Mix the product thoroughly from the bottom upward before use to ensure that the pigments are evenly distributed throughout the glaze.
  • Storage: Keep the product in its sealed container, away from direct sunlight, and protected from freezing.
Important Recommendation: The final color tone, gloss level, and opacity of the glaze 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.
