PC-20 Blue rutile is a very nice blue, i use it and i have very nice results every time, if i do it really thin i get a nice brown wash. If you have applied 3 coats then I can think that you are not firing at the right temperature, check it out with cones to make sure you are reaching ^5 or ^6 Good Luck.

What direction is your wheel spinning?
Pompots replied to Claypple's topic in Studio Operations and Making Work
Interesting thought. I'm going to try the clock-wise spinning mode. Will let you know how it worked for me. -
I also use Karen B's approach. using the same body clay to make your slip makes a best match, not that the other wont work, but this is the perfect combo.

RECYCLED glass infused pottery
Pompots replied to cstovin's topic in Studio Operations and Making Work
You don't need to glaze over the glass, the glaze is a form of glass itself, so the options you have is to glaze the pieces and then put the glass over the glazed piece or, leave the piece un-glazed and put the glass over the raw bisque. You will find what you like best through experimentation, make small projects to start and go from there. One recommendation I can make is never mix different glasses. Hope you get what you are looking for. Best. -
