Kiwi Copper Brown Brush-on Underglaze

Kiwi Underglaze is a water-based liquid ceramic underglaze designed for everyday studio use. Smooth to apply, vibrant after firing, and made for normal brush-on application in ceramic studios, classrooms and home workshops alike.

The colour of autumn’s finest leaves, this warm brown carries the rich essence of nature’s palette, with hints of red and orange igniting its charm.

Kiwi underglaze offers flexibility to be applied in several ways, including:

• Application on to bisqueware, followed by a coat of clear glaze, then glaze fired.
• Application to greenware and then bisque fired at cone 06 (1000°C / 1800°F) prior to an application of clear glaze.
• Application to bisqueware followed by a second optional bisque firing at cone 06 (1000°C / 1800°F) to "harden on" the colour prior to glazing.

Good to know:

• Firing Range: 1050°C to 1260°C / 1920°F to 2300°F.
• Lead-free zone! Kiwi Underglaze is 100% lead-free - always has been, always will be.
• Food safety depends on the finished fired piece, not the underglaze alone.
• For functional ware, we recommend applying Kiwi Underglaze beneath a suitable clear glaze and firing correctly for your clay, glaze and kiln conditions.
• Kiwi Underglaze is a full palette of 50 vibrant, fluxed colours.
• It is suitable for applying directly onto greenware or bisqueware.
• They perform well at both earthenware and stoneware temperatures.
• Application gives a translucent effect with 1 coat, semi opaque with 2 coats and opaque with 3 coats.
• Colour is brightest when clear glazed and fired to cone 4 or 5 (approximately 1180°C / 2150°F), but full glaze firing range is cone 04 to cone 9 (approximately 1050-1260°C / 1920-2300°F).
