Hi All,
I have used Advancers for years. They clean up really easily. =3D20
I put alumina in my wax for bottoms of pots, and an alumina/ball clays =3D
mix under the posts. The real problem as I see it, is how to deal with =3D
the occasional overload of too thick glaze. I am more worried about =3D
ruining a good pot/or pots, since the shelves are easily cleaned. If =3D
you are putting a group of pricey pots on a shelf you know cleans up =3D
with very little effort, I would think that the fiber paper would be a =3D
good choice. That way if the glaze runs onto fiber paper you could =3D
probably remove the paper and grind down the overload to save the pot. =3D
This is just a guess, I haven't tried it yet.
Only two of my glazes ever run. I can control the density. Still, I =3D
will consider buying some paper from Dona for some pieces.
Best,
Rikki Gill

Sea shells are great for glazes that run. Also, thin application at
the bottom of the piece, along with rings on the bottom of the pot
before the foot. You can put rings higher too. Pot at the link
below has four rings att the top and 3 just before the foot. Funny
thing is, that the ash went up instead of running down:
