Instructions
-
Begin with properly fired cone 04 stoneware bisque. Moisten a clean sponge and wipe bisque to remove any dust.
-
If desired, transfer design using AC-230 Clay Carbon Paper. Use a firm hand with a pen (not as soft as a pencil) and keep in mind the paper only transfers on one side!
-
Apply Designer Liner using the detail tip or brush. Only 1 coat is needed for line work using a brush or detail tip and 2 coats for filling in areas.
-
Apply 2 coats of SW-004 Zinc Free Clear to the bottle, avoiding the bottom. Zinc Free Clear was chosen here to preserve the pigments in SG-405 Green.
-
Use a damp sponge to wipe away any glaze that may have gotten on the foot.
-
Fire to cone 5/6. Samples were fired to cone 6.
