GENERAL NOTES REGARDING POWDERED GLAZES

• Glazes marked (LS) contain a low-solubility lead frit. For ware in contact with food or drink we would recommend using glazes marked (L) which denotes 'Leadless'. All stoneware glazes are lead-free.
• For glaze preparation advice please see the main powdered glaze category header here. 
• Powdered glazes, once mixed with water according to the recommended guidance, are suitable for dipping, pouring or spraying onto the piece. They are not suitable for brushing-on without addition of a glaze binder such as Pehatine. If brush-application is intended, we would recommend you select one of our ready-mixed brush-on glazes instead.
• Transparent glazes must be applied thinly and fired/cooled on a fast schedule to avoid ‘milkiness’ and/or crazing in the fired result.
• Artistic/special effect glazes usually require a generous application to achieve the desired effect. Please note the individual product descriptions for product-specific guidance. Some special effect glazes can melt/flow considerably during firing so please take all necessary precautions, especially with regard to protecting your kiln furniture (stilting, batt wash etc.).
