AMACO Velvet V-360 White Underglaze, 2 oz
Highlights
- Clean white from cone 05 to cone 10: slightly cool at low fire, slightly warmer at cone 10
- Velvety surface left bare; a clear glaze sharpens it at any temperature
- Mix into other Velvet colors to lighten them into pastels
- Brush on wet clay, greenware or cone 04 bisque; stiff, so it stays put in the kiln
- AP seal, conforms to ASTM D-4236; food safe only under an approved clear glaze (AMACO LG-10 or HF-9)
How to apply it
- 1
Apply to wet clay, greenware (leather-hard or bone-dry) or mature cone 04 bisque.
- 2
Brush on 2-3 even coats, letting each coat dry completely before the next.
- 3
On greenware, let the piece dry completely, then bisque fire to cone 04.
- 4
Leave it bare for a velvety surface, or cover with a clear glaze (AMACO uses LG-10 Clear Transparent at cone 05 and HF-9 Zinc-Free Clear at cone 5-10).
- 5
Fire anywhere from cone 05 to cone 10; it stays a clean white across the range.
- 6
Fire a test tile with each new batch number before glazing a full piece.

About this glaze
V-360 White is the clean, bright white of AMACO's Velvet underglaze line, in a 2 oz jar. Brush it onto wet clay, greenware or cone 04 bisque for solid white areas, line work or lettering. Left unglazed it fires to a soft, velvety surface; under a clear glaze it looks crisper. AMACO describes it as a cool, bright white at cone 05 that softens at cone 5 and warms slightly at cone 10 while staying clean. It is also the color AMACO suggests mixing into other Velvets to make lighter, pastel shades.
