don't know of any thing with kaolin and alumina, but we use to use a
comercial product at my undergrad school called hi-mull, have no idea what
it was or where it came from, but it seemed to resist the soda for at least
a dozen or so firings at which time we would hack the innerds of the kiln up
with a grinder and recoat, I am interested to see if there is a recipe that
did stick to the wall that is mixable in ones shop

I also don't know a recipe but have used the commercial material from Donovan as in
"master kiln builder" to spray and paint into the salt side of our noborigama. We
are adding 25 lbs. of salt per firing and this coating has been doing even better
than advertised. Also no flaking or pealing.
You can find his adds in the back of Ceramics Monthly.
