I have been looking around and decided to start working on some Cone 6 glazes. I am going to start messing with the following glazes right now
Post 244
EPK 28.7 %
FRIT 3110 21.5
Dolomite 16.9
Talc 2.9
Flint (Silica) 30
Post 244 - Instructions I will follow: Medium glazing thickness, I made the glaze thin enough that it runs off of my fingers as I remove them from the mixture. The key is to see the color of you skin at about 3 seconds after removing your hands from the liquid glaze. I will fire this glaze to Cone 6 and slow cool the firing by -125oF per hour from 2190oF to 1500oF and then turn the kiln off and let it cool naturally. It should give me a nice glossy wine red color.
We will see what happens.
