rolled into the farm with a new dodge pickup.
it was deep blue green.

one of the guys said....`hey mel, bet you can't make a glaze
the color of your new truck`.

so, i went to the garage, thrashed around...and found
an old bag of chrome/cobalt stain. about 2 pounds.

dumbed the entire bag into a 5 gallon pail of
clear/celedon..gloss. cone 10.

fired the pots with that glaze.
deep blue green. same as the truck.
we call the glaze....`truck blue/green.`
nice glaze.
mel
never made it again. it was a one time deal.
