Potclays Glazes for Porcelain
See our Technical Information Sheet "Safe Handling of Powdered Ceramic Materials"
This range of translucent glazes has been specially developed to fit porcelain bodies. As with all stoneware glazes, they are leadless and suitable for dinnerware when fired as recommended. For glaze preparation advice please see the main powdered glaze category header here.
Powdered glazes, once mixed with water according to the recommended guidance, are suitable for dipping, pouring or spraying onto the piece. They are not suitable for brushing-on without addition of a glaze binder such as Pehatine. If brush-application is intended, we would recommend you select one of our ready-mixed brush-on glazes instead.
Transparent glazes must be applied thinly and fired/cooled on a fast schedule to avoid ‘milkiness’ and/or crazing in the fired result.
Artistic/special effect glazes usually require a generous application to achieve the desired effect. Please note the individual product descriptions for product-specific guidance. Some special effect glazes can melt/flow considerably during firing so please take all necessary precautions, especially with regard to protecting your kiln furniture (stilting, batt wash etc.).
