Mayco Stoneware Glacier Blue Brush-on Glaze

Mayco’s SW-211 Glacier Blue Brush-on Glaze provides a translucent, light blue gloss colour. You will produce beautiful colour variations with Glacier Blue without the glaze running off your ware during firing. Designed to provide a hint of colour with one coat, deeper colour with two to three coats – but remaining translucent cone 6 oxidation. Cone 10 colour lightens.

Stoneware classic glazes offer the depth, sophistication and reliability to artists working from mid-range to high-fire temperatures. Many glazes will break over textures, revealing secondary colours and shades. Used alone, stoneware glazes produce beautiful colour variations. One coat will allow the clay body to show through the glaze and two to three coats deeper the colour. The choice of clay body, thickness of glaze application, firing process and temperature will affect the fired finish. 

Good to know:

• Mayco's Stoneware glazes are formulated to be friendly to the user in application and firing.
• One coat allows more of the clay body characteristics to appear through the glaze, adding a faint colour gloss to the surface. Subsequent coats deepen the blue colour but at three coats you will still obtain a translucent fired surface. Four+ coats will produce more opacity and less translucency.
• Non-toxic (lead-free)– Perfect for tableware. Please follow manufacturer instructions.
• Designed to fire to cone 6 (approx. 1230°C.)
• Successfully used at cone 10, oxidation or reduction
• Glazes will move to create interest and visual appeal without running off your ware and ruining your kiln shelves.
• They work well with each and other Mayco glazes, providing endless opportunities to combine and layer to create intriguing visual effects.
