Hi,
I am looking for a Canadian source of Frit 3269. PSH and Tuckers in =
Ontario do not carry it so wonder if there is any other supplier of it =
out there in Canada. Have not found anything on the Internet - though =
lots of US sources. I would like to use it in the metallic cone 6 glaze =
from Barbara Hanselmans' article listed in http://www.ceramicstoday.com/ =
. I tried Frits 3124 and 3134 and ended up with an interesting glaze =
especially over iron underglaze but not a metallic like in the article =
pictures. By the way I tried some of the other glazes in the article all =
with pretty good success - especially the Currie Blue.
Thanks,
