The glaze powder is mixed with water, for good mixing results we recommend glaze stirrers [325031]. Measure approx. 8 dl water per kg glaze powder and slowly pour the powder into the water while stirring. Adjust glaze powder and amount of water using a hydrometer [324060]. If the glaze has not been used for some time, the specific gravity should be checked before use.
We recommend that transparent and single-colored glazes should be sieved through a sieve with a mesh density of 60 mesh [32522060], however, sieving of effect glazes should be avoided.
The glaze can settle, to avoid this adjusting agent ABM-3 [2858] can be added.
