Colorobbia Transparent Dipping Glaze Pail 11.36 Litres

This 'Super Clear' glaze has been developed specifically for the 'Contemporary Ceramic' market. Not simply 'as good' as it's 'Leaded' predecessor's, but better! A Great Clear Glaze is the cornerstone of a successful Ceramic decorating business. It is the first thing that your customers will see when they collect their work from you, choosing the right glaze is paramount to a successful business. Many a potential masterpiece can be so easily ruined by using a dull, unstable or ineffective clear glaze. In addition, what can appear a flat and uninspiring design before firing can be spectacularly enhanced by a simple coat of this clear glaze. Exceeding your customers expectations = Repeat Business ! Removing the Lead content from a clear glaze is a tricky business, the lead was put there for good reason, so removing it meant not only re-working the ingredients list, but also rethinking the old methods of production to accommodate the alternative elements, ingeniously added to this glaze. The result, is a superb, bright, non-toxic, strong clear glaze which is supplied ready mixed, very simple to use, and all this at an extremely competitive price. 

 

The Glaze is, but the bisque probably isn't, combine the two and we have the most durable item we could possibly wish for. A dishwasher cycle is a harsh test of a ceramic item's strength, the heat, the moisture and the aggressive detergents can have a dramatic impact on delicate pieces. As part of the development of this glaze, regular tests are carried out on the fired surface which simulate 500 Dishwasher cycles. The low Thermal expansion of this glaze gives the fired surface an unsurpassed strength which will better withstand the regular stresses experienced within a dishwasher. Conventional wisdom would lead us to assume regular 'Leaded' glazes can have a more 'brilliant' appearance than 'non-leaded' versions, yet with the disadvantage of being softer. 004 now reverses that assumption, having the same brightness of a leaded glaze, but much 'harder' than you would expect. Because we are working with a porous clay body, handwashing items will always be better.
