Application Notes

• Product preparation: Before application, mix the product thoroughly until it reaches a uniform consistency.
• Brush application: Apply the glaze directly by brush to a clean, dry, bisque-fired surface. Allow the surface to dry between coats.
• Spraying and dipping: Depending on the required application consistency, 5-10% water may be added. Add water gradually and carefully.
• Crackle character: The density of the crackle pattern may vary depending on application thickness, the clay body used, and the firing schedule.
• Flow: This product has a fluid character. Particularly when fired at 1040°C and above, it may move toward the base on vertical and sloped forms.
• Application thickness: Avoid excessive glaze buildup near the base and apply the glaze more thinly in these areas.
• Clay body selection: The turquoise color and crackled texture appear lighter, more vibrant, and more distinct on white clay.
• Antique appearance: After firing, ink can be applied decoratively to darken and emphasize the crackle pattern.
• Storage: Keep the product tightly sealed, away from direct sunlight, and at room temperature.
