copotter Posted December 11, 2011 Report Share Posted December 11, 2011 I have a recipe that is from a Walter Ostrom workshop. The glaze is called ^04 Moon. The ingredients don't add up to 100, and I'm wondering if I should go ahead and test it as written. Just thought I would see if anyone had any comments or suggestions. Thanks, Pam Mag carb 25 EPK 10 Lithium carb 5 Borax 20 Gerstley borate 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLowes Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 If you rebalance the 70 to 100 parts, then it is a glaze from Linda Arbuckle's handouts called Moon, firing Cone 06-04, less the copper carbonate that made the Arbuckle handout glaze turquoise. See below: Glaze name: Moon Cone: 06-04 Color: Turquoise Testing: Surface: Crater Firing: Oxidation Glaze type: Texture Transparency: Opaque Recipe: Magnesium carbonate 35.70 Kaolin 14.30 Lithium carbonate 7.10 Borax 28.60 Gerstley borate 14.30 Copper carbonate 7.10 Comments: Bob Shay sculpture glaze. I suppose the Magnesium carbonate is what makes the surface "crater" and the glaze type "texture". Sounds like fun! John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
