Glaze tested on white midrange stoneware fired in electric oxidation to =
1220c.

Firing ramp:
100c p/h to 600c (212f - 1112f)
150c p/h to 1100c (330f - 2012f)=20
100c p/h to 1220c (212f - 2228f)
cool down max. per hour to 900c (1652f)
hold for one hour at 900c
shut off kiln

Recipe:
23.6 Neph. Sye.
12.4 Whiting
11.2 Lithium Carb.
6.5 Gerstely Borate
2.0 Barium Carb.
2.8 Magnesium Carb.
41.5 Silica

Note: All raw materials are measured up or down to the nearest whole =
decimal. =20
Colorants or additives to a 100 gram test batch are measured in precent =
to the 100 gram test batch.

Substitutions:

Results:
Smooth, well melted semi matte glaze. This glaze is pink! Ballerina =
tutu pink. It showed a white glaze where very thick and a pink glaze =

Alisa,
Do you mean to say that there are no colorants added to the formula you
posted here for Pink?
