Instructions

  1. Begin with properly fired shelf cone 04 bisque. Moisten a clean sponge and wipe bisque to remove any dust.
  2. To the top 1/3 of vase, apply 3 coats of SW-132 Mirror Black using CB-604 #4 Soft Fan Brush, allowing drying time between coats.
  3. To the bottom 2/3 of vase, apply 3 coats of SW-135 Wintergreen using CB-604 #4 Soft Fan Brush, allow drying time between coats. 
  4. Overtop the Wintergreen, heavily plop 2 coats, sporadically, of SW-134 Eggplant to the vase, allowing drying time between plopped coats.
  5. Overtop the Wintergreen and Eggplant, heavily plop 2 coats, sporadically, of SW-401 Mayco Flux to the vase, allowing drying time between plopped coats. Avoid plopping SW-401 Mayco Flux to the bottom half of the vase as glaze encourages movement and could run off your ware.
  6. Fire to cone 6.
