I recently posted a note asking if anyone had glass etched gloss glazes
to give areas of matt surface for contrast. I tried using a the glass
etching cream recommended in my replies (since don't have access to
sandblasting) and it worked well (applied thickly for one hour ... I
masked patterns with 'contact' type paper ... make sure to wear
appropriate safety attire).
Of the glazes I tested, it worked best on a very dark blue, high gloss
glaze (gave best contrast). I am looking for a recipe for a cone 10,
black gloss glaze (oxidation, porcelain) to try this technique on (my
current black glaze is not high gloss).
Thanks for your help,
