Ktmountain studio Posted May 1, 2020 Report Share Posted May 1, 2020 Morning! I am looking to try a third-firing technique for added layers and details. Should I use an underglaze like amaco velvet OR an Engobe. I know they are very similar but what would be the difference in this situation? Thanks!

liambesaw Posted May 1, 2020 Report Share Posted May 1, 2020 I think for a third firing you're gonna want to look at china paints or lustre overglazes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neilestrick Posted May 1, 2020 Report Share Posted May 1, 2020 Does the piece already have glaze on it? Does it need to be food safe? How hot has it been fired already? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ktmountain studio Posted May 1, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2020 Yes it has glaze on it, and I am looking to do a silkscreen technique over the glaze. The second firing was to a cone five. I would like it to be food safe if possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Callie Beller Diesel Posted May 1, 2020 Report Share Posted May 1, 2020 There are some overglaze decals that are fired right into the glaze at cone six, but they're commercially produced and I don't know their composition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
