SPARKLE BLACK ENGOBE
NEW COLOUR
EG006P
Cone 6 oxidation (first image): Sparkle Black Engobe fires matte black with metallic specks. Specks may produce texture. Highly stable.
Cone 10 reduction (second image): No change to base color. Specks bloom and become matte. Remains stable.
Tips:
To enhance the sparkle and improve texture, use your fingers to burnish/polish the surface of the ware before the last layer is dry. Polishing is not needed when used in combination.
Can be applied to wet clay, greenware or soft fired, cone 04 bisque.
Engobes are often used for a variety of decorative techniques, such as sgraffito and majolica.
Fires matte. Apply clear glaze (SW004) Zinc-Free Clear to intensify color or for use on dinnerware.
SW004 Zinc-Free Clear is recommended for a black finish. SW001 Stoneware Clear will change the color to a rich brown and affect the sparkle.
Engobes will impact glaze results when used as a base. Engobes are used to change the color of your clay color surface without cross contamination and easy clean up in your studio.
Can be used in oxidation or reduction firings. Results may vary.
The choice of clay body, thickness of application, firing process, and temperature will greatly affect the fired results. Always test your application on your clay body in your kiln environment.
