bill campbell's super crazy glaze

Does anyone have information about Bill Campbell's glaze formulation?

As far as I can tell he sprays a gerstley borate dominated glaze over a
sprayed slip glaze. On ram pressed and slip-cast work of course!

His glaze looks to me like its oxidation fired, the pink from rutile or
iron in medium thickness, blue from copper where its thicker.

You will be very lucky or unlucky to fine someone with his glaze
formulation. I know for a fact he fires to ^11 reduction. The layering for
his glazes are guarded because he makes his living at it. If you were to
experiment with slips and rutile glazes you may come up with something as
good or better.
