Application and Lobelia Effect Notes

• Reactive character: The distribution of cobalt blue, navy, turquoise and green tones may vary depending on the application thickness, form and firing conditions.
• Brush application: Three coats are recommended for a rich and layered surface. Allow each coat to dry completely and apply every coat in a different direction.
• Breaking effect: The glaze may concentrate into dark navy tones in recessed areas. It may become thinner along edges, raised details and high points, creating turquoise and ice-blue transitions.
• Crystalline appearance: The intensity of crystal-like formations may vary depending on the firing schedule, peak temperature and cooling rate.
• Clay selection: Navy and turquoise transitions appear brighter on white high-fire clay bodies. Speckled, grogged or dark clay bodies may produce more rustic surfaces.
• Application thickness: Thicker applications may intensify dark pooling and crystalline effects. Light turquoise tones may become more prominent along thinly coated edges and raised details.
• Mixing: Mix the product thoroughly before application to distribute the color- and effect-producing components evenly. Continue mixing periodically during application.
• Dipping and pouring: Depending on the required consistency, 5-10% water may be added. Add water gradually and in a controlled manner.
