Tina E Posted October 20, 2019 Report Share Posted October 20, 2019 Is it ok to mix mid-fire and low fire glazes on the same piece and fire at cone 04? What happens with the cone 6 glaze when it is fired at cone 04 temps? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neilestrick Posted October 20, 2019 Report Share Posted October 20, 2019 The cone 6 glaze will be very under fired at 04. Most likely it will be very dry, having not melted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What happens with the cone 6 glaze when it is fired at cone 04 temps? Thanks My first pottery teacher's answer was "you can't" when I pushed further she said "it won't work". When I pushed even further she said "try it!" I did. She and @neilestrick were right. It doesn't work, but don't let us stop you trying! And if you're tempted to try the other way, ^04 glaze in a ^6 firing, be sure to use a large cookie/catcher under your pot to catch the over-melted glaze and slumped clay.
