PC-70 Copper Red Glaze Application Tips & Tricks

Tip 1: Apply the glazes out of the jar, do NOT thin. The required thickness and nature of the materials create a thixotropic gel that makes the glaze seem thicker.

Tip 2: Apply glaze evenly and generously. We recommend glazing in a cross hatch pattern making sure your brush is always wet and never dragging glaze.

Tip 3: For the brightest and most dramatic results we recommend firing to cone 6.

Tip 4: These glazes do interesting things in the presence of Titanium; try pairing them with TH-1 High Fire Texturizer and/or PC-25 Textured Turquoise.

Tip 5: Try feathering the glaze to thinner coats at the bottom so the pieces doesn’t stick to your shelf.
​
Pro Tip: Use a Satin Matte or Velvet Underglaze to help stop the flow of a runny glaze.
