Instructions

I run this slip through the ball mill, and add Mason stains (MS) to it for other color options. I apply most slip leather hard. This slip also looks nice with clear over it in an oxidation firing. 

For black slip, add 4% MS 6650. For gray slip, add 9% of a blend of MS 6650 and MS 6700. For blue slip, add 4–9% of any blue stain.
