Hello Betsy Cox.
Please tell us what you need. It looks like you have found a recipe in a book. This frit
has 54% lead. Who needs cigarets and wars!
The lead will lead us away!

If they don't have the 3304, a close substitute is usually available.

Being aware of the health hazards of lead has nothing to do with political
correctness. Lead contamination is insidious and lead builds up (is stored)
in our bodies. Lead dust in our studios and fumes of lead from our firings
present real dangers to us as potters and those that share our work and
living spaces.
Lead leaching from glazes can also be a hazard to anyone using them - the
younger those people and pets are the more danger there is.
There are laws about how much lead can leach from any ware that can be used
for food.
If you use lead make sure you have your blood lead levels checked at
appropriate intervals - and know what the symptoms of lead poisoning are.
