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): Lime Shower is formulated to produce a vibrant chartreuse gloss glaze with dark green and white crystals. Light coats will produce a semi-transparent finish in the base glaze with fewer crystals. Use three or more coats to produce an opaque green float with more saturation of crystals. At cone 5, this glaze will produce a matte sepia finish with little breaking over texture.

Cone 10 reduction (smaller image): Color becomes less vibrant. Crystals melt.

TIP: SW-253 Green Opal is the base glaze. For a lighter crystal effect, you may try applying two coats of SW-253 Green Opal with a third coat of SW-148 Lime Shower.

Safety 

Can be irritating, harmful to health, and environmentally hazardous.
