Capri Blue Mayco Stoneware Glaze
Description
Stoneware matte glazes range from solid shades to those that create interesting color variations as they move and break. Application thinkness is the key to making mattes work for you.
Cone 6 oxidation (larger image): Capri Blue is a variegated blue glaze that breaks over texture.
Cone 10 reduction (smaller image): Semi-gloss finish with variegated blue/green.
TIP: The lighter the application the greener the glaze. The thicker the application the bluer the glaze. If you like Green Tea and oyster combos, try Capri blue because those 3 glazes are in the same glaze family. Gloss finish.
Size: 473ml Brush on liquid glaze.
Working Notes
For full coverage, use 2-3 coverings. Allow each to dry before applying the next.

Health & Safety
Manufacturers Recommendations: Dinnerware Safe indicates the fired glaze surface meets the FDA standards for food safe, the fired surface is free of surface texture that could potentially trap bacterial, and the fired surface is chemically durable. Please note, dinnerware safety is not defined by cutlery scratches. Finished ware producers bear responsibility for dinnerware safe testing their ware being sold into commerce.
We at Bath Potters will quote the manufacturers recommendations, but if you intend to make ceramic dinnerware with selling in mind, then you would be best advised to get your wares tested.
