Craquelé effect glaze and how to paint bisque pottery to achieve amazing gloss exciting final effects

Craquelé effect glaze is characterized by its unique surface. It has a low flow value so that there is no fear of it running off.

The best firing result is achieved at 1040°C.

Liquid Glaze Craquelé 

The glaze is perfect for brush on. It should be coated 2-3 times with a soft brush. After drying please fire between 1000-1080°C. Shake and stir very well prior to use. If the glaze becomes thickened over time simply add water and stir thoroughly.

Dry powder Craquelé 

This glaze is to be dissolved in water. I recommend the proportion - 60%:40% (40g. glaze and 25ml. water). Mellowing and screening before use is pertinent. 

Each glaze is recommended to be tested with various layers on the body concerned and under determined conditions. The mixing of the glazes is possible in order to change color shade, melting properties or to achieve some artistic effects. So you get simple ideas for painting pottery.
