I have mixed a batch of Turquoise glaze out of his Ceramic Glaze Handbook.
Cone 6 matt.

Anyone with experience with this glaze.
1. How thick to mix?
2. How thick to apply?

Hi Randy,

I can't answer your questions, but I would offer a caution. This glaze
is probably very unstable and I would bet it would fail the vinegar
test. It has a very low silica level (1.6). It should not be used on
functional work without thoroughly testing it.

Regards,

John
