Zircopax makes the liner glaze much whiter on this porcelain


Sunday 6th May 2018

Although this is a whiteware body (Plainsman M370), under the transparent insight-live.com/glossary/193">liner glaze (G2926B) the color appears ivory, off-white. But with 8% added Zircopax the quality of the color is transformed into a white that is even better than what a much more expensive New Zealand or Grolleg kaolin porcelain would exhibit with a transparent cover glaze. The outer glaze is G2934Y matte with a yellow stain. The glazes were applied inside and outside by pouring and dipping (it would not be possible to apply the yellow evenly enough by brushing).
