Storm Grey Mayco Stoneware Glaze
Description
Stoneware matte glazes range from solid shades to those that create interesting color variations as they move and break. Application thinkness is the key to making mattes work for you.
1230°C (1st image): Storm Gray is designed to produce a medium gray to white variegation depending on application. One coat will produce a medium gray matte finish with little white variegation. Subsequent coats build a white variegation, muting the medium gray.
1300°C (2nd image): Off-white variation darkens. Gray variation turns blue.
Tip: Thinned coats produce a medium gray satin finish. Thick applications will increase white variegation. Brush stroke application is visible in finished results. We recommend applying coats on bisque in different directions (crosshatch). Although finish appears opaque, surface decoration can be easily seen through glaze.
Size: 473ml Brush on liquid glaze.
Health & Safety
Manufacturers Recommendations: Dinnerware Safe indicates the fired glaze surface meets the FDA standards for food safe, the fired surface is free of surface texture that could potentially trap bacterial, and the fired surface is chemically durable. Please note, dinnerware safety is not defined by cutlery scratches. Finished ware producers bear responsibility for dinnerware safe testing their ware being sold into commerce.
We at Bath Potters will quote the manufacturers recommendations, but if you intend to make ceramic dinnerware with selling in mind, then you would be best advised to get your wares tested.
