The glaze is gray with a bluish tint. It melts perfectly on lava clays, where the dots from the clay penetrate the glaze surface in a fine harmony. The glaze is good for light/gray clay types. Best results are obtained at 1240-1250 °C. At 1260 °C the glaze becomes more glossy and gray.

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.
