Application and Chia Effect Notes

• Speckled character: The intensity, size, and distribution of the dark speckles may vary depending on application thickness and firing conditions.
• Brush application: For a distinct and balanced speckled surface, applying 3 coats is recommended. Allow the surface to dry completely between coats and apply each coat in a different direction.
• Mixing: Mix the product thoroughly before application to distribute the speckle-forming components evenly across the surface. Stir again at regular intervals during application.
• Clay body selection: Dark speckles appear more distinct and contrasted on white high-fire clay bodies. Speckled, grogged, or dark-colored clay bodies may produce more rustic surfaces.
• Application thickness: Thicker applications may produce denser and more dynamic-looking speckles. With thinner applications, the underlying clay color may have a stronger influence on the surface.
• Dipping and pouring: Depending on the required application consistency, 5-10% water may be added. Add water gradually and in controlled amounts.
