- Begin with properly fired shelf cone 04 bisque. Moisten a clean sponge and wipe bisque to remove any dust.
- Mix 3 Parts SW004 Zinc Free Clear with 1 parts water to thin glaze.
- Pour mixture of Zinc Free Clear into the vase form.
- Turn the vase in a circular motion slowly while also tilting the vase to pour out any excess glaze. Be sure to coat the entirety of the inside of the form.
- Using a #4 Fan Brush apply 1 thick coat of SW425 Black Gloop onto vase and allow glaze to dry mostly before moving to the next step. The glaze will lose its sheen/have a satin like finish. This is when you are ready to move forward.
- Apply 2 coats of SW162 Pink Matte, allowing pink Matte to dry between coats.
- Fire to cone 6.
Additional Adaptations & Tips
- If you see the Gloop glaze streaking into your brush when applying first coat of Pink Matte the Gloop is still too wet and needs more time to dry.
- Gloop does not apply like a typical stoneware glaze when brushing. You may see texture from brush strokes and your coat of brushed glaze will apply thick.
- Gloop will tend to break and pull apart where the glaze is applied thicker.
