Mayco Stoneware Crystal Brush-On: Winter Wood 473ml

About

• Cone 6: Winter Wood is a matte white glaze that contains a variety of brown crystals that melt.
• Cone 10: Color changes to a translucent golden brown.
• SW-106 Alabaster is the base glaze. For a lighter crystal effect, you may try applying two coats of SW-106 Alabaster with a third coat of SW-155 Winter Wood.
• Also available in dry format 2SD155-5

Note: Due to the discontinuation of the AmTalc 98, Mayco have had to reformulate SW-106 Alabaster, SW-118 Sea Salt, SW153 Indigo Rain, and SW-155 Winter Wood. Users will notice a shift in the wet glazes (from grey to buff) and a slight shift in the fired color result.  Please note that the fired result is dependent on firing temperature, atmospheric conditions of the kiln, application, and underlying clay body. The crystal loading has not changed. See below for the wet glaze color comparison of SW-106 Alabaster and the comparison of fired results on chips. Please see this link for more information (link to Mayco's website)

Stoneware crystal glazes are designed to expand upon the surface with dazzling bursts of color. Fired results will vary based on ware’s orientation. Crystals will settle to the bottom of the jar and will need a good mixing prior to initial use. Re-stir between each coat. Stir with palette knife or other unpainted tool. Avoid placing crystals near the bottom third of a vertical piece as they may cause additional movement during firing. Crystals will flow more than the base glaze. While the glaze is wet, use your fan brush to redistribute the crystals to achieve balanced coverage. Over-application or heavy deposition of the crystals can cause pinholing or running. When storing a crystal glaze, you may consider storing upside down to facilitate crystal dispersion on the next use.

Stoneware Classic & Matte Glazes

Mayco Stoneware Classic glazes are a mixture of AP Non-Toxic and CL (Health Caution) label. Please review the individual color label for health classification and any appropriate warnings. All but one (see below) of the Stoneware glazes in the Classic line are Food Safe, according to FDA standards. Note: Finishedware producers may be required to have their ware food safe tested prior to introducing into commerce. With the exception of those noted below, The Stoneware Classic and Matte glazes are also Dinnerware Safe when used according to manufacturer’s directions and fired to the clay body’s vitrification temperatures. SW-132 Mirror Black, SW-182 Antique Brass, SW-164 Satin Patina, SW-185 Rainforest, SW-186 Azurite, SW-187 Himalayan Salt, SW-188 Landslide, SW-195 Riptide, and SW-197 Fossil Rock are not Dinnerware Safe due to the durability of the fired glaze. Some glazes, regardless of surface texture or porosity of underlying clay body, will be designated as not suitable for dinnerware as the fired glaze surface is not durable and can be impacted by contact with food or liquids. While it may not be harmful, it is certainly not desirable.
