Howdy Folks...
I've been working with a glaze for the past couple of years. Adjusting it =
this
way and that. It is unreliable to say the least. Bubbles and blisters on =
half
the pots and the other half are GORGEOUS. When it is good, it is very, very
good and when it is bad...
Does anyone have a glaze they are willing to share? =5E9, reduction, no =
barium,
looks kinda like an ash glaze, antique (slate) blue with almost a hint of
green, satin matt to matt surface... for me to test?
Thanks so much,
Tracy

A glaze was posted on the list a while ago called Clemson Univ. Satin Blue
Green Matt. I've tested it and it might be what your looking for:


Blue green Satin Matt Clemson U

Custer Spar 38.5
Whiting 20
EPK 20
Flint 15
Cobalt Carbonate 1
Rutile 6

It is a matt light blue where thick and greenish where thin. Very nice.
