Amber Topaz Dry - 10 lbs Dry Mayco Stoneware Glaze

Description

SD204-10 Amber Topaz Dry Cone 5 Mid-Range Glaze by Mayco Colors in 10-Pound Dry form.

Stoneware classic glazes offer the depth, sophistication and reliability to artists working from mid-range to high-fire temperatures.

Many glazes will break over textures, revealing secondary colors and shades.

Used alone, stoneware glazes produce beautiful color variations. One coat will allow the clay body to show through the glaze and two to three coats deeper the color. The choice of clay body, thickness of glaze application, firing process and temperature will affect the fired finish.

Cone 6: Amber Topaz provides a translucent, light honey-blonde color. Designed to provide a hint of color with one coat, deeper color with two to three coats - but remaining translucent.

Cone 10: Color changes to a transparent brown.

TIP: One coat allows more of the clay body characteristics to appear through the glaze, adding a faint color gloss to the surface. Subsequent coats deepen the amber color but at three coats you will still obtain a translucent fired surface.

Three+ coats will produce more opacity and less translucency.

Heavy application may increase the incidence of crazing.

Mixing Instructions:

Due to the manufacturing process, Mayco Stoneware Dry Glazes do not require sieving.

All you need to do to use our dry-mix glazes is add water, shake, stir and DIP.

Tumble the bag prior to initial opening, which will remix the ingredient in case of settling during shipping.

Water to dry material ratio is 16 oz. water to 1 pound of material. 

Add dry mix to water. Always use a NIOSH approved respirator when mixing dry materials.

You will love the sheeting action when dipping and be pleased to find that our dry-mix glazes will not settle out in your storage bucket.

Whether dipping or spraying: let previous coat dry before applying additional coats.
