Technical Details and Application
Glazing and Painting
- Underglaze Painting: Patterns, lettering, or motifs can be applied to the inner and outer surfaces using underglaze paints suitable for tile or ceramic techniques.
- Firing: When ceramic glaze is used, it is generally fired between 1040°C and 1050°C. If you prefer tile glaze, 900°C to 920°C is suitable.
Use with Acrylic Paint
- If kiln firing will not be done, the product can be colored with acrylic paints for decorative purposes.
- After painting is complete, applying spray or liquid varnish is recommended to make the colors look more vibrant and protect the surface.
- Products painted with acrylic paint and varnish are not suitable for food contact; they should be used for decorative purposes.
