Mayco Stoneware Glaze Blue Hydrangea SW170

Description

SW170-16-ounce Blue Hydrangea (Brush On) Stoneware Glaze by Mayco Colors in 16 ounce Pints

Stoneware crystal glazes are designed to expand upon the surface with dazzling bursts of color. Fired results will vary based on wares orientation. Crystals will settle to the bottom of the jar and will need a good mixing prior to initial use. Re-stir between each coat. Stir with palette knife or other, unpainted tool.

Avoid placing crystals near the bottom third of a vertical piece as they may cause additional movement during firing. Crystals will flow more than the base glaze. While the glaze is wet, use your fan brush to redistribute the crystals to achieve balanced coverage.

Over-application or heavy deposition of the crystals can cause pin-holing or running. When storing a crystal glaze, you may consider storing upside down to facilitate crystal dispersion on the next use.

Cone 6: Blue Hydrangea is a blue floral inspired glaze that contains yellow and white crystals. As the crystals melt, large white blooms and smaller yellow blooms appear in the glaze.

Cone 10: Color changes to blue. Crystals fade slightly.

TIP: SW-207 Chambray is the base glaze. For a lighter crystal effect, you may try applying two coats of SW-207 Chambray with a third coat of SW-170 Blue Hydrangea.
