Clear glaze may be used to enhance the glossiness of the fired finish. Apply the clear glaze according to manufacturer's directions over the unfired Speckled Stroke \u0026amp; Coat®and fire once.\u003cbr\u003e Note: The amount of non toxic glaze deposited can affect the fired results. If too much glaze and clear glaze is applied you may experiences dull or \"milky\" fired finishes. If this occurs, adjust the number of glaze layers applied, lighten the amount of glaze on your brush, etc. - whatever is needed to reduce to total amount of glaze placed on the ware. For pieces already fired - you may improve the fired finish by refiring the pieces and adding a hold\/soak time at the end of the firing cycle (10-15 minutes).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Are SpeckledStroke \u0026amp; Coat®'s luster compatible? \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e A: All colors are luster compatible.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: How can I create dimensional effects with Speckled Stroke \u0026amp; Coat®? \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e A: Speckled Stroke \u0026amp; Coat® will remain moderately dimensional when applied in a concentrated area. To create a raised line with a brush: layer 4 to 6 coats, allowing each coat to dry before applying the next. You can also use a detailer bottle or slip trailer to create raised lines: apply 2-3 layers, again allowing each layer to dry between applications.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: How do I achieve best results when applying Speckled Stroke \u0026amp; Coat® to greenware? \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e A: Gases and moisture will escape from the greenware during firing, so it is best to leave a portion of the ware unglazed - for example: the back of a tile, the foot of a vessel. If you do completely glaze a greenware piece you may experience a dulling of the gloss finish. If this occurs you can apply a clear glaze and refire to get a gloss finish. Always test to see if Speckled Stroke \u0026amp; Coat® will on your specific greenware project.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: What are the guidelines for firing Speckled Stroke \u0026amp; Coat® to Higher temperatures (cone 6 - cone 10)? \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e A: Many of the Speckled Stroke \u0026amp; Coat® colors perform well at mid range (cone 5-6) and high (cone 9-10) temperatures. Darker colors - green, red, blue, orange, purple - will maintain much of their original color value (they may darken a bit compared to cone 06 results). Lightly pigmented colors - pink, yellow, tan, lighter purples - will fade. Always test to see if this application variance will work on your specific project.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Can Speckled Stroke \u0026amp; Coat® be used with other products? \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e A: Speckled Stroke \u0026amp; Coat® glazes are compatible with all Mayco glazes and with many competitive glazes. It is not recommended to design on top of fluid, moving glazes, such as Crystalites and Elements, as then work will become distorted.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: How is Speckled Stroke \u0026amp; Coat® different from other glazes? \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e A: Speckled Stroke \u0026amp; Coat® is a heavy-bodied glaze that smooths-out and heals imperfections during the glaze application process. It can withstand over firing without fading and it is tolerant of many types of bisque and clay bodies. It is not fluid like many gloss glazes - it behaves more like a traditional underglaze as it \"stays put\" where it is applied. It's like having 4 or 5 different glazes in one bottle - a Wonderglaze™ for bisque and clay.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFor Product MSDS Sheets Click on \"Literature\" at the bottom of any page on our site.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/body\u003e","published_at":"2018-03-20T13:15:31","created_at":"2018-03-20T13:15:32","vendor":"Mayco Coloramics","type":"Mayco Cone 06-10 SP Speckled Stroke \u0026 Coat Glazes","tags":["discount20","Glaze Line_Mayco (SP) Speckled Stroke \u0026 Coat"],"price":500,"price_min":500,"price_max":2300,"price_varies":true,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":true,"all_variant_ids":[40823707697215,40823707729983,40823707762751],"variants":[{"id":40823707697215,"product_id":561566154815,"product_handle":"mayco-sp245","title":"2oz. - Stock Item, Normally ships in one business day","option1":"2oz. - Stock Item, Normally ships in one business day","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"SP245-2","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":null,"image_id":null,"available":true,"name":"Mayco – Cone 06 - SP-245 Speckled My Blue Heaven - 2oz. - Stock Item, Normally ships in one business day","options":["2oz. - Stock Item, Normally ships in one business day"],"price":500,"weight":60,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_quantity":0,"inventory_management":null,"inventory_policy":"deny","inventory_in_cart":0,"inventory_remaining":0,"incoming":false,"next_incoming_date":null,"taxable":true,"barcode":null},{"id":40823707729983,"product_id":561566154815,"product_handle":"mayco-sp245","title":"8oz. - Stock Item, Normally ships in one business day","option1":"8oz. - Stock Item, Normally ships in one business day","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"SP245-8","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":null,"image_id":null,"available":true,"name":"Mayco – Cone 06 - SP-245 Speckled My Blue Heaven - 8oz. - Stock Item, Normally ships in one business day","options":["8oz. - Stock Item, Normally ships in one business day"],"price":1210,"weight":431,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_quantity":-1,"inventory_management":null,"inventory_policy":"deny","inventory_in_cart":0,"inventory_remaining":-1,"incoming":false,"next_incoming_date":null,"taxable":true,"barcode":null},{"id":40823707762751,"product_id":561566154815,"product_handle":"mayco-sp245","title":"Pint - Stock Item, Normally ships in one business day","option1":"Pint - Stock Item, Normally ships in one business day","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"SP245p","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":null,"image_id":null,"available":true,"name":"Mayco – Cone 06 - SP-245 Speckled My Blue Heaven - Pint - Stock Item, Normally ships in one business day","options":["Pint - Stock Item, Normally ships in one business day"],"price":2300,"weight":567,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_quantity":-3,"inventory_management":null,"inventory_policy":"deny","inventory_in_cart":0,"inventory_remaining":-3,"incoming":false,"next_incoming_date":null,"taxable":true,"barcode":null}],"available":true,"images":["\/\/dulcemielevents.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/sp-245_lg_3242d94a-3227-40ec-9489-671a26406a0a.jpg?v=1715456832","\/\/dulcemielevents.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/ap_seal_875cd202-2156-476a-b843-5941d325a62b.jpg?v=1715456832","\/\/dulcemielevents.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/dinnerware_77967f7d-52ef-4e08-871c-aee8e6d76e0b.jpg?v=1715456832"],"featured_image":"\/\/dulcemielevents.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/sp-245_lg_3242d94a-3227-40ec-9489-671a26406a0a.jpg?v=1715456832","options":["Size"],"url":"\/products\/mayco-sp245"}
