Numbers are good
but should not overrule as.
Hmmmm.....
I was only stating that chemically Strontium and whiting are different.
However it's purpose
in the glaze recipe may be the same. Such as having a high strontium matte
glaze in
exchange for a high calcium matte glaze, both forming crystals and both
giving a matte.
Since no recipe was given, I just mentioned the difference chemically.
You are completely right,
But numbers do matter, especially if colorants are involved.
I think we are talking about the same thing.
A recipe would help in solving that question......
Ababi, you said your only contact with other potters is through this group,
Is there no other potters in the area you are? Do you make your own clay?
