I love to single fire...Most of my glazes contain NO CLAY(not even
Bentonite)...I simply add 1gr. Veegum CER to every 100grs. dry glaze. THe
Veegum CER tends to thin the glaze out so I add less water....75ml/100grs.
as opposed to 100ml/100grs.
THe veegum CER keeps the glaze from crawling off the pot in the dry
state(before firing) and helps to harden the glaze surface(this can be
helpful for onglaze majolica type work)
