Here's another one. This one uses G200 (or Custer) spar instead of
F4:
RR c6 black #3
-----------------
G 200 SPAR............22.00
WHITING..................4.00
TALC..........................5.00
F3134......................26.00
EPK..........................17.00
SILICA.....................26.00
BENTONITE.............2.00
RED IRON OX.........9.00
coblt carb.................1.00
----------
Total......................112.00
These two are very similar, very glossy, very black on tan-brown
claybodies that I've tested. Fire to a true cone 6 for best results.
