hello
i have a clay body that fires a horrible pale pastel.
I am trying to do some slip work on raw ware so i need a white slip.
Is it possible to make up a white slip by adding tin or what else?
I have tried talc ware it is not for me i need a more plastic body.
thanking all of you in advance,

I use a recipe called old reliable slip it is supposedly from Alfred It is
rated for ^06 -^03 but I use it at ^6 as well. It works great I have never seen
any problem at all with it and it used with a variety of clays and works
from leather hard to bone dry
