Galaxy - Dry
Description
Stoneware glaze for dipping. Fires between 1200 °C and 1260°C (cone 5 to 10). Can be sprayed and used for oxidation, reduction, among others. Since clays can vary and have different properties, we recommend testing the glaze on a small piece of the clay you intend to use. The bag contains powder to be mixed with water according to the instructions.
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 deepen the color. The choice of clay body, thickness of glaze application, firing process, and temperature will affect the fired finish.

Information
Cone 6 oxidation (larger image): Galaxy is a semi-transparent charcoal colored gloss glaze that contains a three-tone white, orange, and blue crystal. As the crystal melts, a brilliant bloom of white, orange, and blue appears. The glaze is reminiscent of a star being born.
Cone 10 reduction (smaller image): Crystals and base showcase more blue hues. Crystals melt.
TIP: SW-209 Charcoal is the base glaze. For a lighter crystal effect, you may try applying two coats of SW-209 Charcoal with a third coat of SW-156 Galaxy.
Safety
Can be irritating, harmful to health, and environmentally hazardous.
