Does anyone out there have the details for these two clays? I'm guessing =
that Tile 6 is a kaolin but I have no formula. Is Kentucky Special a =
ball clay? I would really appreciate an analysis. Also, while we're at =
it! What about Frit 3124 from ferro?=20

Thanks in advance,

Phil Rogers.

Phil, if you have not visited Digitalfire's site Ceramicsearch, you may enjoy
it. Before responding I looked up Ferro 3124 under the search for Ceramic
materials. It returns a fairly comprehensive page of detail about each
material. The official page is:
