How to apply it

  1. 1

    Start with clean bisqueware fired to cone 04.

  2. 2

    Brush on with a soft, natural-fiber fan brush, floating each coat on. This is a CL glaze, so don't spray it.

  3. 3

    Build up 3-4 coats, letting each coat dry completely before the next.

  4. 4

    It's a fluid glaze: fire a test tile on your clay first to see how much it moves.

  5. 5

    Glaze fire to cone 5 (2167°F) or cone 6 (2232°F) at medium speed.

  6. 6

    For layering, AMACO's guide uses 2 brushed coats of each Potter's Choice glaze.

About this glaze

Textured Turquoise is a soft turquoise gloss that changes with thickness: aqua where it pools, a green-beige where it thins over edges and texture. That shift makes it a natural fit for stamped, carved or ribbed ware, and it layers well with other Potter's Choice glazes. AMACO notes it is a fluid glaze, so it moves during the cone 5-6 firing. Brush it straight from the pint jar. It carries the ACMI CL (Caution Label) seal, meaning it is for ages 13 and up and should be brushed rather than sprayed, and it has AMACO's Food Safe seal.
