looks like there were a number of requests for this recipe... i have to
remind you that it was a glaze that was played with in a glaze calc class....
and that it seems that the testing is still on going... so this is the
original pete pinell matt that i found in a '94 issue of cm... and which is
also the recipe the student used...
strontium matt ^6
lithium carb 1
strontium carb 20
neph sy 60
ball clay 10
(we use grolleg kaolin or epk)
flint 9
in the article... different colors are affected by a variey of additions...
white
5% titanium ox.
weathered bronze green 5%
titanium ox.
5% copper carb
periwinkle blue
0.15% cobalt carb
4% copper carb
dark mottled green
8% copper carb
cream/tan
6% rutile
charcoal
2% manganese diox.
5% copper carb
the class fired it at ^9/10 in reduction.... so it was altered by simple
adding equal parts of the dry petes to a wet glaze.... ie. 100 gr of
each... by weight... the glazes that have been used inclued a ^10
glossy and a ^10 high aluminum matt.... just to move it to a higher
melting temp...
our ^10 glossy recipe is...
flint 32
whiting 21
custer 32
epk 15
bentonite 1
the ^10 high aluminum matt...
cornwall 48.9
whiting 3.5
dolomite 22.4
epk 25.1
of course the glaze(s) may vary depending on your source of materials for the
glaze as well as the clay you use... so test it.... good luck....
