Instructions

Mix this slip to the consistency of half and half. It can be brushed or dipped. In oxidation firings, this slip tends to lean into a soft, butter yellow. In heavy reduction, however, it will fire to a toasty orange. It can be very resistant to atmospheric effects, so it usually comes out with a matte finish.
