In the most recent Journal of Australian Ceramics, 43/3, inside the front
cover is an ad from Walker Ceramics for "Hot Colour...Cool Price." FIRE CRAB RED
Designer colour FK25. Firing range 1000-1300C. Available in 50 ml., 100
ml., 500 ml., l lt., and 5 lt. containers. Checking their website I find this is
one of "24 intermixable liquid colour concentrates that are suitable for
earthenwork through 1300C. These are vibrant colours, not pastels. Brush strokes
are silky, fluid and long.."

At this website under NEW they also have Hot Chili Red and Blood Red, "two
beautiful new stains with amazing intensity, stability and brightness all the
way through to stoneware temperatures. They are stable under and in a great
variety of glazes."

Check out "Wonder Colours" on the same site.
