glaze - Volcanic Grey Blue Rough
Beautiful, decorative glaze that creates a rich texture in the firing.
In comparison to the “white lava” this has more blue/grey hues as well as the surface is actually rough to touch (the white lava is silky to touch, so this one suitable for more decorative work).
Recommended for high-fired stoneware and porcelain.
!!! For best results we recommend firing range 1240-1250 C
Lead-free and cadmium-free, however due to the highly textured surface not recommended for food surfaces unless used like decorative edge (as seen in my work).
Sold in powder form only.
Mixing guidelines: Add water proportionally 1:1 to begin with, after sieving adjust with little extra water as needed to achieve the desired thickness. Generally 500g (1.1 lb) of glaze makes about 800ml (27oz) of liquid glaze.
Add water, put through a sieve and good to go. YOU MUST MIX THE WHOLE dry mix into water (as we mix glaze by hand it is not uniform yet, if you take just half in water the ingredients will not be even!)
Apply thick layer- dipping, spraying, pouring or brushing- all methods work.
Suitable for raw firing also.
*This sculptural lava glaze will create an explosive surface on your piece! We recommend playing with thickness of application to achieve variations in surface quality.
For diverse results, experiment with coats and method but ensure your kiln shelves are well protected. Keep in mind that there will be slight variations, please test accordingly. Results are usually affected by thickness of application, temperature and firing cycles.
WARNING!
Do not ingest.
Use gloves when mixing and applying product. Keep away from eyes. If product gets into eyes rinse thoroughly with water. Avoid dust and dry glaze build up from evaporation of solution. Wash with a wet cloth only and do not sweep or dust off. Ensure adequate ventilation during firing.
