Tested a clear glaze at ^6 ox that was posted by Michelle Lowe. It was nice
and clear and no crazing. The numbers didn't add up to 100 and I'm wondering
if I'm missing something, even though it turned out well. Nice and simple
formula.
Anyone?

Gerstley Borate 25
Flint 15
Kaolin l5


Have been using the following Floating Blue recipe for a year. It has been
very consistant and everybody wants it on everything. ( Am getting kind of
sick of it)
At ^5 it has alot of blue, less at ^6, and more black at ^7.

Neph syne 44.3
Gerstley borate 25.2
