Can one of the glaze people give me an analysis of this glaze please?
Durability, solubility, food safety, etc.
I'm expecting that it is really only good for a non-food surface.
^06-04 Curdle
Borax 69.23%
Soda spar 19.23%
Red Clay 11.54%
_______
100%
Add:
Zinc ox. 7.5-11.5%
Tin ox. 15.0-30.0%
Thanks,

Hi!
I changed the numbers because I made them to 100% including the zinc.
Is this glaze kind of crater glaze?

I think it was an evil person who gave you this glaze.
First what is > Zinc ox. 7.5-11.5% I took the average. Too high for these cones
Tin: Why so much, What do you do with 20- 30%
Borax: How do you dissolve so much borax in the glaze.
If you look for good white glazes.
