Hi:
I fire to cone 6 and find that Albany Substitute (know as syntheticAlbany)
make that glaze a lot runnier that the same glaze with real Albany.
Alberta slip is much better and more like Albany in most of my Albany
glazes. However in my Albany green, the color is much lighter and washed
out compared to real Albany. The recipe calls forBlack nickle oxide to give
the green color (its and dark metallic green alone and a rich hunter green
under white). When I add more Black nickle to get a better green color,
it runs. So its a mixed bag, but Alberta is better. True Albany is/was
the best of all.
