Skrej Posted September 7, 2018 Report Share Posted September 7, 2018 Hi all, I'm trying to locate a glaze recipe which I lost. If anyone has it, or has any suggestions as to where else to query, I'd appreciate the assist. The glaze in question is known as Garzio Blue Ash, aka Garzio Fake Ash. It's not really an ash glaze, but just has a high percentage of Albany Slip to mimic the runny effect. I'm trying to locate it more for sentimental value than anything else, so I'm not interested in alternatives, of which I've found plenty. Thanks in advance, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
