Cone 6 oxidation (first image): SW218 Micro Ash is a glossy, translucent, variegated charcoal glaze with a periwinkle float that breaks over texture. Blooms of shimmering onyx micro-crystallization will develop during the firing process.
Cone 10 reduction (second image): Glaze darkens.
TIP: This glaze is fluid at 3 coats. Recede application to avoid unwanted runoff. Due to the translucent nature of this product, be aware of your application consistency and thickness to avoid streaky brushstrokes. We recommend firing our micro glazes to cone 6 oxidation to reach crystalline development. Micro Ash achieves a stable, semi-opaque, warm charcoal result that breaks over texture and has a pearlescent satin finish when fired to cone 5. Can be used in oxidation or reduction firings. Results may vary. The choice of clay body, thickness of application, firing process, and temperature will greatly affect the fired results. Always test your application on your clay body in your kiln environment.
One of the most distinctive traits of Mayco’s Stoneware is that the glazes provide consistent performance and intriguing visual interest. They are best known for being receptive and favourable to the user during both application and firing. Mayco Stoneware glazes are friendly to the user in application, layering and firing. Many glazes will break over textures, revealing secondary colours and shades. The choice of clay body, thickness of glaze application, firing process and temperature will affect the fired results.
