Kiln wash is a protective layer that is applied to your kiln shelves to prevent glazed pieces from sticking while firing.
Your glaze may run, your pot may tip over, or you may over-fire the clay. This makes kiln wash an important preventative measure for all glaze firings.
How to Use: fill jar with water, shake well. Then apply several thin coats to the top layer of your shelves, letting it dry thoroughly in between each coat.
Use a brush, roller, or even a sprayer.
Do not apply to fiber-based or silicon carbide shelves.
