Product Review
Opalescent Glazes are opaque and have a pearl-like high gloss finish when fired. Best results are achieved with three or four applications of glaze. When used on textured ware, the glaze flows thin on relief and thick in incised areas, giving an added dimension on the surface. To dramatize their effect, brush them over a contrasting colored underglaze or clay body. For best results, apply on Cone 04 bisque. Includes:1 Pint of Glaze

- On red bisque these glazes should be applied heavily and a slow firing is best.
