^06 glaze on stoneware


Recommended Posts

He everyone. I'm using ^06 glaze on stoneware tiles I made, for my wooden table. No food will be eaten or prepared on the table top, so I just wanted to find out what without all think. Do I fire the glaze at ^06 or^ 6? Thanks in advance everyone. :)

P.s. I don't have access to the test kiln to test the results.

Perhaps you could first fire the unglazed tiles to ^6 in order to vitrify the clay, then glaze them with your ^06 glazes and fire them the second time to ^06. This will mature the glazes without over firing them and the clay will be vitrified, too.

You'll have a hard time getting the glaze to adhere to the vitrified tile during application. It's possible, but difficult.
