What Is Causing The Black Zits In My Glaze?

I don't mind posting pic, but I don't know how.  I tend to spend my time on studio issues, and don't get around to adding technology, but my WFB looks much like the cover of the book.

I think the cooling has a lot to do with how this glaze looks.

Email them to me and I'll post them for you.  I'd love to see this glaze in "Technicolor" the way it should be.  dkane17@myfairpoint.net

I have had the 'smarter than I am'  phone for 3 days. :unsure:  I will try to do this.  Thanks

 

This glaze looks best on heavy texture, I think,  most of the colors seems to show up in the thicker, thinner breaks in design.  If I'm planning on using it, I put in definite ridges  and also at the foot, to slow the run.

The reds seems to show up mostly on flat textured pieces. Where it sheets or pools on flat smooth clay, it shows up as a grey greenish more dull color, not what I like.

This is a portion of a tumbler with WaterFall Brown on the lower part and ButterScotch on the upper.  Where the ButterScotch overlaps the WaterFall Brown is the upper 2 bands, the lower 2 bands are WFB alone.  That dark spot has a slight indent to it.  The clay body is Miller 55 from Laguna, a buff color. I fire to ^04 bisque and ^6, 2190* using Ron Roy's firing schedule.
