Red Glaze
Hi Bubbles
1000c is about the temp used for firing in the Kiln that I am able to make use of. If a different temp is required for the colour I want, then so be it. Bryn "Bubbles" wrote in message ...

Red Glaze
Amaco, and Potterycrafts both have red brush-on glazes that mature at
that temperature. use an 06 cone to fire them, and don't fire above that or they will burn out and lose all colour. Neither of these glazes is food safe!

Neither of these glazes is food safe! Just as a little info ROK, here in Switzerland, actually have a glaze made for 1000 which works very well at 1250 also. It does feather a bit at the edges, but stays very nice and red. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like they export to G.B. They do seem to export to Germany, Netherlands and Finnland, though. The glaze number is 555. All ROK glazes are without any kind of poisons (including lead) - something I appreciate. Marianne

Red Glaze
I think Amaco has a couple of red glazes that fire to cone 6....also look at
Georgie's and Coyote Color and Rainbow - all make at least one red color. -- Stephanie Coleman University of Phoenix Online alt email: 706.467.9579 "Bryn Salter" wrote in message news I live in the UK. Where can I get a red glaze the colour of a Welsh Dragon or a pillar box?
