Default Chemistry basics for potters?

Oops - meant to say - I would only do that as a test to try to track down
what is going on. Go to clayart (www.potters.org) and do a search for
blistering or blisters in Title and Body - many ideas are there.

Put a scatch in the glaze with your nail. Also your glazes will thicken
over time and need to be thinned. How much glaze do you have and do you
have a scale?


I do have to add a little water to them now and then, for sure.

I have close to 40 high-fire glazes and around 12 low-fire glazes - plus
some underglazes colors.

I have an old kitchen scale that I use to weigh my clay before I dump it
on the wheel. It weighs up to 2 kilos.

Happy weekend!

Marianne
