I have several buckets of mayco stoneware glaze that I mixed from dry. I originally mixed them at the beginning of 2023. They all worked great initially but now a few of them have started to have issues. The glazes giving me issues seem thinner- I measured one and it has a specific gravity of 1.36 whereas my other glazes have a specific gravity of 1.46. Can specific gravity change over time?
Is there a way to fix this? Can I let it settle and remove some water?
Glaze thinning over time?
