Help! I've overfired a kiln load of bisque and am wondering what to do
about glazing. I fire in wood to cone l0 and have the option of leaving the
outside unglazed although I would like to glaze the outside on a number of
pots. Will the glaze run more than ;usual? How do I get the glaze to stick
when the absorbtion is minimal?
Will appreciate any help.

George, When this has happened to me, I have had some success by treating the
over-fired bisque as though it were a refire. Heat up the pieces and then
apply glaze. Although there is nothing porous for the glaze to adhere to, it
will stick to a preheated surface. Once there is an initial coat of glaze you
can carefully brush or dip further applications. Good luck. Paula Sibrack now

George,
If you can spray the glaze on it should work out fine. Just takes forever
for each coat to dry. Katrina
