I used Synthetic red iron oxide+ tin.
I soaked 30 minutes.
This is actually ^5 glaze.
I fire this way:
up to 120C 248F the speed 100 degrees C an hour ( approximately)
from 120C up to 340C 644F 200 degrees C an hour. Than it works in full
power.
I open the kiln after 2-2.5 days. At 200C 392F If there are delicate
works I wait to 150C
The only thing I changed from earlier habit was not to open the small
hole in the top and wait until the next day.
After R&J book will pass the wavy eaten, I shall check the downhill
more accurate
