tomhumf Posted June 15, 2014 Report Share Posted June 15, 2014 I'm currently planning to do some tests with the ^6 base glazes from digital fire. I will be adding various percentages of colouring oxides to see what results I get. The pots I'm currently making have a fair amount of carved decoration, and also some slip trailing. I'm not sure what the term is when a glaze goes thin over sharp edges of decorations so you can see the clay body. I would like to create a glaze that does this. 'breaks' is maybe to do with colour changes and not the term I'm looking for... Anyway I was wondering what elements of the glaze formula would contribute to this effect, and whether the viscosity of the glaze makes a difference? Thanks!

oldlady Posted June 16, 2014 Report Share Posted June 16, 2014 the glaze breaks, you are using the right term. I use many published glaze recipes, and I change coloring with various oxides or stains but I have no interest in developing my own glaze. why re-invent the wheel?
