Susan: Having ruined too much pottery in the past with those ever flaking
kiln washes... I finally broke down and bought a gallon of Lee's Kiln Wash
from Axner Pottery Supply.. This stuff works out to be the cheapest wash I
have ever used because of all the LABOR and TIME and POTTERY that it saves
me. If there was a better wash I would use it... but so far this is the
best I have ever used and I still HIGHLY recommend it.... Marshall

I also use Lee's Kiln Wash. I totally agree with Marshall. I am sick
of messing up the bottom of pots. Lee's works great!!! No bad bottoms,
no flaking of kiln wash! I had been using 50 Kaolin- 50 flint. Lee's
is 100% better.
