Hi Eleanor,
Our group uses a quite a lot of Tucker's glazes from Canada which are
formulated or monitored by Ron Roy. They have a wide variety of very
dependable glazes and we have always had excellent results with them. They
of course work well with his and John Hesselberth's "Mastering cone 6
glaze" recipes , and really lots of others too. We've never had any
problems. I'm not sure of the best way to get them across the US/Canada
border, but I guess Tuckers can tell you that.

Hi Eleanor
I've used Coyotte glazes for years. They're actually quite awesome. And
yes, you can layer them and also use them with your own home-grown glazes.
Contact info:
Coyote Clay & Color: at
http://www.coyoteclay.com
OR call (866) 344-2250 and speak with Martin (the owner and a heck of a
nice fellow ! ).
Their speciality is Cone 6 glazes.
