Several glaze recipes I have come across recently call for grolleg. In
the back of my mind I seem to recall that EPK is a substitute for
grolleg, but am not certain. Will someone please clarify for me exactly
what the writer means by grolleg. Also, are zircopax and ultrox a one
for one substitution? Thank you in advance for your time in answering.
Dorothy-from Dallas where it was 113 today. My black Shar Pei, Emma,
thinks if I had not taken her when she was abandoned that a nice trucker
might have picked her up and taken her to some cool mountain
instead.It's awfully hot for little black dogs down here.

I don't mean to hurt your feelings, and I am probably reacting to reading the
lists today and you are way down the list, but doesn't anyone on this list
have or use books anymore? Or is it just easier to pick the brains of the
ones who do? Any, I repeat, any good potter's handbook type reference book,
and there are plenty of them out there, should not only tell you the
difference, but give you the chemical breakdown of the two chemicals in
question. Eight of the twenty pottery books I have contain information on
grolleg clay.

Grolleg is a China clay produced by an English company called ECC
International.
I normally use Grolleg for clay bodies but why not glazes as well.
