Health & Safety

Vitraglaze is lead free and non-toxic.

Good housekeeping is essential in any pottery studio to minimise inhalation of silica dust.

Always clean up with a damp sponge and if any dust is airborne, such as when mixing powder glazes, wear an FFP3 mask.

Preparing a powder glaze

Always wear a mask when mixing powdered glaze.

Glaze should be added to water according to the instructions.

Mix glaze for at least 10 minutes, sieve the liquid glaze using an 80 mesh screen, working all the material through the sieve using a stiff brush.

The glaze mix should have a single cream consistency, remember it’s easier to thin a glaze so begin with a thicker mix than you expect.

See under ‘product attachment’ for how to mix a dipping glaze and our ‘really useful dipping guide’

Applying a brush on glaze

Remove glaze from the pot, stir and agitate the glaze in a larger container, make sure all the material is mixed thoroughly.

Whilst keeping the glaze moving, dip your brush and hold it sideways to keep the material evenly distributed.

Apply using confident dabs, move the liquid around and work quickly and smoothly.

2 to 3 applications could be needed so allow to dry between coverings.

Gorgeous!

I used this as a dipping glaze and it was flawless. A lovely depth of colour, some amazing effects with other glazes (Terracolor and Spectrum) and stunning on texture!

Island Turquoise is GORGEOUS.

This glaze has to be one of my absolute favourite glazes... stunning on sibelco nigra as well as white clays

Fab colour, customers really love it.

I buy this in powder form but it does settle making it hard to mix for future glazing. Bought the mixing medium to go with it and this has helped keeping it more fluid. I find it does drip which causes variations in depth of colour (more down to my poor glazing methods). Goes well with Almond Milk. Fired to 1250 on white stoneware.

Good glaze great colou

I mixed it partly with Lagoon Blue on a white base. I wanted a rustic effect - if you want glossy you would need more coats.
