Adjusting stains for variegation


Recommended Posts

Super newbie to the world of glazes. I have a few recipes from a trusted source, and upon recommendation I purchased several mason stains to add to a base glaze for an inexpensive and stable option. I used the super basic 20x5 base glossy glaze and added my stains to that as a trial. Some of them are great, but most of them are homogeneous in appearance. There's no variegation, it's not very interesting to look at. I'm wondering if there's something I can add to the 20x5 recipe, or a different clear glossy base glaze that would give the stains a more variegated appearance. Any help is appreciated!

Thanks! I did read this somewhere else, I'll give it a shot and see what turns out. 

Doesn't take much, sometimes as little as 2-3%.

Try a line blend with each, with 2, 3, 5 or something and see which you like best.
