Mayco Snowfall is a dimensional glaze that create a white, textured surface. It is a non-moving glaze and, as such, application methods (brushing, detailer bottle/slip trailer) have an impact on the fired result. Use it as an accent glaze on Christmas items and animal décor. Apply it up to ¾ inches thick for extra dimension!
Snowfall can simulate more than just snow, use it for ocean foam, clouds, etc. To create colored Snowfall, brush Stroke & Coat®, Foundations® glaze, or Duncan E-Z Stroke® Translucent Underglazes of choice over the white snowfall and fire. For a 3-dimensional design, use snow over a stencil.
Mix well. Apply 2 or more coats over unfired glazes, shelf cone 04 bisque (1060°C), greenware or clay. Can be applied with a soft brush or sponge. For dimensional effects, apply using a Writer Tip. Fire to shelf cone 06 (999°C). Can be applied with a soft brush, sponge slip trailer, or writer tip for texture variations.
Although Snowfall was designed to be fired to cone 06, Snowfall may be fired to higher temperatures to add a puffy texture to mid-range fire designs. Snowfall will perform the same in mid-range firings.

Apply 2-3 coats of any of the copper green glazes leaving the area for the SG-302 Snowfall with out the green glaze and butt the SG-202 Snowfall up to the glaze.
