MIXING DIRECTIONS: Wear a NIOSH approved mask for dust. Pour 1 gallon (3.8L) of distilled water into a 2 gallon (7.6L) or larger bucket. Avoid breathing dust while adding product to water. Mix contents until smooth and free of lumps. For best results, sieve glaze through 80-mesh screen and let sit overnight. Please refer to detailed instructions inside box.
DIRECTIONS: Stir well before use. Dip Cone 04 (1945°F, 1063°C)* bisque into glaze for 1-3 seconds, lift out and turn over to pour out excess glaze. Fire to witness Cone 5-6. Store prepared glazes in sealed bucket. Test dipping thickness before firing. To reduce thickness, add 1 cup (236 ml) of water, then retest.
Due to variations in raw materials, we recommend firing glazed test tiles before using each new batch number of glaze. Request Safety Data Sheets when using in manufacturing.
Tableware producers must have all finished ware tested and approved as safe for food through a certified laboratory due to possible variations in firing temperature and possible contamination.
