How Does Mason Iron Compare To Red Iron Oxide In A Recipe?


Recommended Posts

I have a recipe for an earthy red glaze and it calls for Mason Iron.  In the past I have used red iron oxide in a "saturated iron" glaze on porcelain and stoneware at cone 10.  This glaze is a cone 5/6 glaze.  Will red iron oxide overwhelm the glaze, ie is Mason iron not as

strong as Red Iron Oxide and if so do you think I could still use it but use less than 10% in the glaze?

looks like your question fell into that deep hole called "i don't know".  you might get an answer from the Mason stain company technician.  they are very helpful.  if you have a way of contacting the recipe originator, that might work, too.
