Application Notes

• Preparation: Mix the product thoroughly before application until a uniform consistency is achieved.
• Brush Application: The glaze can be applied directly to a clean, dry bisque surface. Three coats are recommended to achieve a finish similar to the visual sample.
• Drying Between Coats: Allow the surface to dry before applying the next coat. Apply each coat in a different direction for an even distribution.
• Dipping and Spray Application: Depending on the application method, 5-10% water may be added gradually and in a controlled manner.
• Metallic Character: As the number of coats and application thickness increase, the metallic highlights, dark blue transitions, and reactive surface movement may become more pronounced.
• Clay Body Selection: White clay bodies may produce brighter and more distinctive blue tones, while dark or colored clay bodies may produce deeper and more varied results.
• Flow Control: A test tile is recommended before use, particularly on vertical forms, to observe glaze movement and metallic effect distribution.
• Storage: Store the product tightly sealed at room temperature, away from direct sunlight, and protect it from freezing.
