It was pointed out to me that I didn't specify the clay body (thanks
Tom) on which we use the clear glaze.
The problem with this is that I manage a studio where we have available
a half dozen kinds of clay for the students, ranging from two dark red
and brown clays, all the way to a white pseudo-porcelain clay. The
clear we have works well on the white and buff clays, but gives a very
gray cast to all the medium to dark clays. Is there something which
will work well across the board?

Northern California, where the skies are gray and undecided... kind of
like our Presidential election

Clear glazes generally look greyish on red/brown clays. -Snail
