Opulence Glaze in liquid pints have been enhanced for better brushability!
We have two types of C/6 glazes: dry glaze manufactured for dipping- in 5 lbs. and 25 lbs. packages or in liquid pints that are now enhanced for better brushability.
New Directions for BRUSHING Opulence Glaze Liquid Pints:
PLEASE READ: Brush 2-3 coats on C/06-04 Bisque. For best results, use a soft fan brush. When layering two different Opulence Glazes, use only 2-3 coats TOTAL to avoid over application. The brushable liquid pints can be modified for dipping/pouring by adding 2 capfuls of water and shaking well before using. Allow to dry thoroughly before glaze firing to C/6.
Mixing Instructions and Helpful Hints for DRY glazes, manufactured for dipping:
Translucent Glazes- Numbered 900-999
Mixing: 5 lbs. mix with 4.5 lbs. of water. Sieve through 80 mesh screen. 25 lbs. mix with 22.5 lbs. of water. Sieve through 80 mesh screen. Suggested specific gravity 150-152
To determine if Opulnce Dipping Glaze is correct water to dry glaze ratio, you can measure the specific gravity. This method is helpful if the glaze has been sitting for an extended period of time or if you are concerned the glaze has become too thick or thin. Specific gravity is found by the weight of mixed water and glaze.
