need transparent glaze

Does anyone have a good cone 5 transparent glaze? Something that does not
run, and will not crackle? The one I have recently used (#16 transparent ^5
to ^10) ran slightly, but has a horrible crackle. It would be great if that
was what I was going for, but unfortunately I'm not.

Thanks,

Scott

Scott, Laguna's China White has been bery, bery gooda to me. It's tough to
match clay and glaze shrinkage. I use Laguna's B-mix 5 clay. Jan

I'm not sure if you want a commercial or a made one, Mayco has a terrific glaze
that works up to cone 10. the C-109 will work perfectly over everything.
