This is what google came up with:
+++ Butterscotch +++ ++++++++++++++++++++++++ Cone 6 oxidation and reduction This one was posted on clayart a short while ago. A white and tan mottled satin glaze at cone 6 in oxidation. In reduction it has a softer sheen and the iron spots from the claybody look great breaking through it. Nepheline syenite 1784 22.3% Whiting 1520 19 % EPK 1512 18.9% Hazard! Flint 2328 29.1% Hazard! Gerstley borate 856 10.7% -------- ------ 8000 100 % Superpax 400 5 % Rutile 464 5.8% "Scotty" wrote in message ... Does anyone have a recipe for Cone 6, electric kiln called Butterscotch.

I think they all use zirconium oxides, and all are supposed to have about half the opacifying ability of tin oxide. (That's from reading.... I haven't tested myself.)

Dear annemarie:
Superpax is Zircopax on steroids.... Seriously... its a Zirconium silicate that is about one third stronger than Zircopax. You will have to test its strength in glazes. It is a basic substitute for Zircopax. And Zircopax is a replacement for Tin Oxide. I find that Superpax and Zicropax will make the glaze a lite pink tone that is a bit matt when I substitute this for Tin Oxide... Good luck.

There may apacifiers but they ain the same. Theres something soft about tin oxide in a glaze. John W |

John W Yeah well I know what we are talking about now ) I have tried Zircopax and Tin Oxide and agree the tin has a softer less harsh effect. Thanks for the replies. A |
