SP 1129 Maroon - Artistic High-Fire Glaze

Application Notes

• Product preparation: Mix the product thoroughly before application to distribute the reactive components evenly.
• Surface preparation: The bisque surface must be clean, dry, and free from dust before application.
• Brush application: Applying 3 coats over white bisque is recommended for rich color and pronounced effect depth. Allow the surface to dry completely between coats and apply each coat in a different direction.
• Reactive transitions: The deep maroon tone may intensify in recessed and thickly applied areas. Over edges, raised details, and elevated areas, the glaze may become thinner and create crystalline openings in cream or white tones.
• Application thickness: Color intensity and edge openings may vary depending on glaze thickness. Controlled application across the entire form is recommended for a balanced result.
• Dipping and spraying: Depending on the required application consistency, 5-10% water may be added. Add water gradually and in a controlled manner.
• Clay body selection: The deep maroon tone appears lighter and clearer over white high-fire clay bodies. Speckled or dark clay bodies may produce more rustic results with greater depth.
• Firing effect: Kiln atmosphere, peak temperature, firing rate, and cooling schedule may affect the surface color transitions and crystalline openings.
• Storage: Store the product at room temperature with the lid tightly closed and away from direct sunlight.
• Safety: Use suitable protective equipment during application and keep the product out of reach of children.
