Experimented with colored slips to see how they would work for possible =
use for scene painting. I used stains mixed with slip made from the clay =
body. Fired to Cone 10R with a clear glaze. As you can see alot of the =
color burned out. I might try the same experiment with Cone 6.

Anyway, thought I would share. This link is to the colored slip on =
greenware. Click on the foward arrow to see after Bisque and after Glaze =
firing.

Two things may be happening. The reduction kills a lot of stains. Also,
if you have zinc in your glaze, that will kill chrome-tin colors (reds,
purples, pinks). Try using stains without chrome-tin elements. It's not
so much the temp.--it's the glaze and reduction.

Mason stains, mainly the red family, need a calcium-rich glaze with no
zinc and little to no magnesium.
According to the website, they also don't do well in reduction.

I used a slip recipe at Penn State University that held colors even in cone
10 reduction. The white base recipe posted on the wall was as follows:

Grolleg---------- 1500
EPK--------------- 750
XX Sager--------1250
Neph. Syenit---750
Silica--------------750

Black-----Red Iron Oxide----------300
Manganese Dioxide---200
Cobalt Ox.----------------200
Chrome Ox.--------------150


Dark Blue:--------------Cobalt---------200

I also used mason stains mixed in with the white base slip and it held up
great in cone 10 reduction. My problem was and still is that I can not find a
glossy clear glaze that remains clear and does not turn opaque when the pots
are dipped or brushed with the clear glaze.

Pamela,
Thanks for the slip recipe.
I find if I thin down any clear glaze (lite cream to whole milk
consistancy) it remains clear and doesn't get milky.
Often I just want a sheen on the outside of my pot I thin that to
about skim milk consistency.
Also I do not hold it for a count. when it's that thin the decoration
is visible through the film of glaze.
I've done this ^5-7 oxidation and ^10 reduction.

Dear Gayle,

Thank you for the suggestion of thinning down a clear glaze! What a
simple yet brilliant idea! Do you have a cone 10 clear glaze recipe that you
have done this with before and are willing to share?

Many thanks,

Pam
