Brand: Amaco
Rating: 1 (1 reviews)

Amaco No. 27 Off-White Sculpture/Raku Clay is made from finely ground white clays that are combined with medium mesh buff grog to increase porosity and reduce cracking, shrinking, and warping.  

Recommended for raku, this de-aired moist clay can also be used for  hand-building  and throwing larger pieces without fear of slumping or cracking.  

Amaco No. 27 has a wide firing range, from Cone 05&ndash;5 (1911deg;F&ndash;2205&deg;F). Bisque fire to Cone 04 (1971&deg;F, 1077&deg;C). The recommended glaze firing is Cone 05 (1911&deg;F).  

At Cone 5, the bisque is white with some black specks, and the shrinkage is 9%, with 10% absorption. At Cone 10, the ware is light buff with very few specks, with a shrinkage of 8.4% and absorption of 1.7%.  

A 50 lb carton consists of two 25 lb bricks, each in a poly storage bag, so any amount can be used as required and the rest stored for future use.

These liquid Raku glazes are lead-free and formulated to create dazzling effects and varied surfaces on non-functional pottery and sculpture. No two finished pieces will ever be the same because the metals and colorants of the glazes are brought to the surface by flame and reduction. In order to achieve dramatic effects, Raku glazes must be reduced in a Raku firing. 

R-10, R-11, R-20, and R-21 are transparent and sprayable. All other colors are opaque, except for R-18, which is translucent. Glazes must be fired to their recommended temperature of Cone 05 (1911°F, 1044°C).

Duncan Mother-of-Pearl Translucent Overglaze

Duncan Mother of Pearl Translucent Overglaze is a metallic compound that can be applied over fired glazes to create a lustrous, iridescent finish. Its appearance is determined by the glaze underneath. For example, a gloss glaze will result in a shiny luster, and a matte glaze will result in a dull luster.  


Use a soft brush such as a Deerfoot Stippler to apply Mother of Pearl Overglaze. For visibility during application, the overglaze has a light blue tint (a dark blue color means the overglaze was applied too heavily). For a swirled look, overlap brushstrokes during application. For a smooth look, lay down brushstrokes in the same direction. After application, allow to dry, then stilt and fire to Cone 020.


__Note__ — This product is only non-toxic after firing. Work in a well-ventilated area during application. Do not stir or shake.

Apply Duncan Mother of Pearl Translucent Overglaze over fired glazes to create a lustrous finish. Its appearance (shiny or dull) is determined by the glaze underneath. Use a soft brush such as a Deerfoot Stippler to apply, allow to dry, then stilt and fire to Cone 020. 0.5 oz bottle.

Mayco Pottery Cascade Glazes are moving, flowing glazes that are commonly used over other glazes to create reactions and movement. Cascades are perfect for the low fire ceramicist seeking to create looks achieved at higher temperatures. Their variability ensures that no two designs will be exactly alike.   Available in Clear (the most fluid of the two glazes), or White (which moves the least), these glazes can be applied randomly or uniformly by using a brush or by dabbing them on with a sponge. Pottery Cascades can also be used as a flux with Mayco Elements Glazes to create movement in the colors. Great visual effects can be created when added under, over, or between Elements glazes.   To use, apply 1–2 coats with a brush or sponge, under or over another glaze. The direction of the flow or the pattern can be influenced by how the glaze is applied. Allow the glaze to dry thoroughly, then fire to Cone 06/05. To prevent the glaze from running off vertical pieces, do not apply it to the bottom third of the piece.

Mayco Pottery Cascade Glazes are moving, flowing glazes that are commonly used over other glazes to create reactions and movement. Cascades are perfect for the low fire ceramicist seeking to create looks achieved at higher temperatures. Choose Clear (more fluid) or White (for less movement).
