I lost my recipe for a slip I really like...it is a cone 9-10 reduction =
slip that does fine at 6....I have looked through all old CM's and torn =
all apart.....went to archives, nothing I could find....
Can someone please, if they use one, send me the recipe? I think that I =
would recognize it, if I saw it....it was in several CM's....Rutile =
Slip-(says it can be irridescent, if that hint helps)....thanks for =
anything you can do....this was not how I planned to spend sunday =
afternoon.....Melinda Collins

Look. i have no idea what the original listing description of this slip
was, but lo these many years ago, when Snail was herding dinosaurs, and I
worked in the zinc (NOT zinc oxide) mines I copied this out--my guess would
be from CM

ORANGE SLIP

Custer (pot) spar 15
KBC (OM4) 65
Flint 20
Rutile 20

i use at c.6 just as a slip. NO idea what it does in other circumstances.
I expect, however that if it is "your" slip you will recognize it and you
will fall into each other's arms and live happily ever after.
