Anyone tried this? If so what is your firing schedule? I am getting a lot
of bubbles in the rivulets if it has any thickness at all. The only way I
can get it decent is to spray on a very thin coat.
I tried firing higher to cone 7 and still got bubbles.

Hi Randy,
I've used the brown. I've brushed on 3 coats. The first was all over the
piece, except for the usual spots. The second would got to an inch or so
from the bottom and the the third would go even further up. It's very
runny.
When I fired it, I fired it with standard cone 6 glazes. The cycle was a
simple fast glaze with no soak. The only piece I've done this on has
worked really well. I can take a picture of it and pass it on if you'd
like.

Question: Did you add any water or just shake it up and use right out of
the container?

Wow, something I can finally contribute! Yes, I have used them. I brushed
them on in layers so that there were two full layers on the whole piece and
the third layer only on the top third of the piece.
Try mixing colors too. I got great results doing that, although I can't
remember which colors I used and can't find my notebook.
These were all fired at school in the electric kilns to cone 5 only. If I
remember correctly, there is a short soak. I don't remember anything about
the cooldown time, though I suspect it's not made slow with extra heating.
