ivor,

i can't say to what advantage over rutile, but i use a Blair Meerfield TiO2
salt slip, as published in feb 2000 ceramics monthly cover article. it gives
the yellow i want, as long as it doesn't get attacked by too much soda.

Dear Brian,
Could you post the recipe of Tio2 salt slip? I gave away all my old CM.
