Stoneware Glaze 1305 Deep Blue, Glossy 25 kg
[231305-S]
A stoneware glaze with an unusually clean and deep blue colour.
Make tests to achieve a good result (do a 3-dip test: dip the whole test piece, then half, then a third). Too thick or too thin layers can give pastel blue or gray-blue colour. The best colour depth is obtained at 1260 ºC. 1305 is a very exciting glaze that goes well on all types of clay, but gives the best colour depth on lighter clays.

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.
