Description
Achieving the perfect look is easy with E-Z Stroke translucent underglazes! Their intense pigment allows for high definition and decoration on your pieces. Create a watercolor effect with one simple stroke or add shading and depth with additional strokes. E-Z Stroke underglazes are ideal for airbrushing, antiquing and brushwork. They can be applied directly to greenware or bisque and layered over most underglazes, allowing the basecoat to show through. E-Z Stroke underglazes work well with high fire, cone 5-6 and some to cone 10. As high results vary, a test piece piece is recommended.
E-Z Strokes are safe for serving food when coated with a Duncan food-safe clear glaze.
Manufacturer's Directions
Apply 1 coat for translucent designs to greenware, unfired glaze, soft-fired bisque or cone 04 bisque. For rich depth and shading, apply additional coats. Fire to shelf cone 04. Apply clear glaze, stilt and fire to shelf cone 06. Water clean-up. E-Z Stroke underglazes may be applied over most underglazes, including Cover-Coat and other E-Z Stroke colors, allowing the base color to show through.
Health and Safety
