TRS 278 Black - Artistic Low-Fire Glaze

TRS 278 Black is an opaque, high-gloss glaze that gives glazed surfaces a deep, bold, and even black tone. At low firing temperatures, it creates a smooth, glass-like surface with high coverage over the underlying clay color. It can be used to emphasize the sharp lines of modern and industrial designs, create striking contrasts, and add visual depth to broad surfaces.

Application Notes

• Brush application: For a rich and even black appearance, applying 3 coats over white clay is recommended. Allow the surface to dry completely between coats and apply each coat in a different direction.
• Opacity: The glaze produces a sharper and glossier black appearance on white clay bodies. Results on red or dark-colored clay bodies may vary depending on application thickness and the clay body.
• Consistency adjustment: The product is ready to use for brush application. For dipping or spray application, water should be added gradually and in a controlled manner to achieve the appropriate flow.
• Mixing: To ensure even distribution of pigments and glaze components across the surface, the product should be stirred thoroughly before application and regularly during use.
• Surface character: Its glossy character strongly reflects light across broad surfaces, while emphasizing depth and volume on curved and dynamic forms.
