karenmanzanero Posted September 17, 2021 Report Share Posted September 17, 2021 (edited) Hi there! i found this beautiful glaze and I’m trying to figure out if I can use it for cone 6. It says it can be used for cone06 and cone 6. I’ve also seen other glazes that state they can go from cone06-cone10. Is that a thing? How do they work? I’m aware the results are different (the glaze becomes pale or bright or new colors pop and it may cause surface problems). Just wondering if I can fire this guy at cone5/6: https://seattlepotterysupply.com/products/speckled-pink-a-boo-1?variant=34198788538507 thanks Edited September 17, 2021 by karenmanzanero Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick White Posted September 17, 2021 Report Share Posted September 17, 2021 The only way to know is to test it on you clay body. Some glaze recipes are quite robust and work over a wide range, and others are finicky within a narrow range. Even ones that are represented by the seller as having a wide range may respond differently on different clay bodies, both as to color and fit (shrinkage) over the range of temperatures.

Roberta12 Posted September 18, 2021 Report Share Posted September 18, 2021 I bought a few bottles of Stroke and Coat to use on earrings. I tested on 2 clay bodies, and at 04 and 6. I have been pleased with the results. If I understand from reading the description, it is Stroke and Coat?? Roberta Bill Kielb 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Callie Beller Diesel Posted September 18, 2021 Report Share Posted September 18, 2021 Stroke and Coat is its own weird animal. Most glazes do not do what this does. Roberta12 and neilestrick 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
