Can anyone help please.
I'm looking for a white slip that will go onto dry pots, before being bisque
fired. But one that is thick enough to create some texture.
The tests that I have made have been dull, but OK on the pots. When I add a
white stain the slip has cracked , where thick after firing.
Two of my recipes are:
33 clay body
33 ball clay (hyplas)
33 potash feldspar
15 lead bisilicate
17 white stain
60 clay body
15 potash feldspar
11 borax frit
13 white stain
Both fired to 1140c.
Thank you for any suggestions
