This glaze performs best at cone 6 but can be fired to cone 5. For best results, leave the inside or back of the form unglazed.

These glazes are prone to running so we recommend stopping your glaze about half an inch above the foot. You can also use a drip tray or soft bricks to protect kiln shelves.
