safe. I have used them on the outside of non functional ware and I like =
the rusty bronze, it has a tendency to pinhole and run. I found if I =
cut back on the lithium it helped alot. I also changed my lithium =
supplier. Not all lithium is created equally...... The light green I =
have not had any trouble with. I also found out this glaze does not =
like to be soaked, at all, seems to promote bubbles and pinholes. Where =
this glaze is thick it turns glossy, thin goes black to green matt. =
Seems to do much better on small pieces than very large. I did not =
