I’m convinced this glaze is magic. I always have a great big bucket of it in my studio. It goes on nicely, never flakes off, doesn’t pinhole or crawl and plays well with others. It does a stellar job of highlighting texture, and I recently discovered it’s the perfect base to add mason stains, so one pail of this plus a handful of stains and I have a whole palate of colors to use!
What a great share to help potters save on cost of glazing, thank you! I appreciate how detailed and accurate your information is, you are a natural teacher
Oh good I am glad you found that helpful. I always get mad when people break down the cost as though you were a huge factory and getting a mega bulk discount on the ingredients.
Thanks for the video! I think I am going to have to give this recipe a try. The white I use in my studio tends to crawl when I use commercial glazes over top, which is very annoying.
Wonderful! You'r the best ! 😊 It's awesome that you can listen and adapt to us who follow you. Always accurate and very entertaining. Thank you!@@threelittlepotters
Hansen 20x5 takes stain really well. I have a video on adding mason stain to a glaze and that's a good base. glazy.org/recipes/18705 If you've never mixed before I use #325 mesh silica. Some stores will call ingredients by different manufacturer names. Let me know if you have any questions about that. I remember the first time I was mixing I was thrown off by the store calling silica "flint." Let me know how it goes!
Hello from Australia 🇦🇺 I’m really enjoying your videos. I have a question, do you wipe the bottoms, ie does the studio white stick to the kiln shelf? I run pottery classes and I think this glaze would be amazing.
Thank you for watching my videos! I do wipe my bottoms. I wax them, and then still wipe to make sure there are no little spots of glaze left on the part that touches the kiln shelf.
thank you so much for the inspo and information! I absolutely fell in love wih your kiln openings as you do have so many glazes combos... I got curious about 'dirty snow' since viewing them, are they both similar or do you use them for different effects?
Dirty Snow which can be found on glazy.org is currently my favorite flux glaze. I am planning to do a video on some of my favorite glazes to use on rims. Dirty Snow has a lot of titanium in it, so it's like the white version of a flux. You can use it in the same way you might use Mayco light flux. Lynette Opal which was my long time favorite before that one is more of a beige flux since it has a lot more rutile in it. So for many combos I will do a dipped base of studio white, a brush of another glaze and then Dirty Snow just on the rim, unless it's a bowl and I have a place for the glaze runs to pool.
Love your channel...I really want to make this glaze but total newbie..I am not sure what silica to get..I have option of 200..350 or 400 here in Nz..when I look at recipies it just says silica..😊
I would use the 350 mesh silica. I use 325 mesh here and I don't think you'll see much of a difference. It's a measure of how finally ground into powder it is. My supply shop calls it "flint" which also threw me off the first time I was ordering it.
Hi, Im just starting my glaze journey and really found this video helpful.. Just wondering if there is a commercial glaze that has the same effect as this studio glaze? I am not yet able to buy all these ingredients and mix it myself, but do see the benefit of a white glaze base! Thank you!
@@threelittlepotters Thank you! It’s unfortunate that not all commercial glazes have a specific ingredient list (which I do understand from a business perspective) so you can’t compare opacity or pigment. That means testing out different brands yourself and that’s kinda expensive 😅 haha.. But I might just buy a white glaze to see if it works, if not I’ll just use it on it’s own.. Thanks again! 😊
Great video - love discovering new glazes! How much water did you add after the initial 3200ml to get the right consistency (or what Specific Gravity was it)?
Since I mix studio white a lot, I usually do that by eye, looking for a more milk like consistency if I am planning to dip, or heavy cream if I'll be doing more brushing. Heavy cream more like SG 150, milk could be anywhere from 135-145 and give good results. All of those numbers work to give a good base glaze, so I spend less time measuring knowing it's not as sensitive about thickness as some glazes.
@@threelittlepotters Thank you!! I'm definitely going to be trying this glaze. Have you tried studio white with stains? Someone in the comments seems to be having success with that.
@@David-uv7hz I have a video on that here: ua-cam.com/video/dUfAWCgLwmg/v-deo.html In short, it works the best with strong stains, best black gives it a nice gray, canary yellow is nice. Hansen 20x5 is a better recipe for adding stains, just not as great at playing nicely with commercial glazes.
Hi, I have a question about when the glaze dries on the piece isnt it chalky and easy to peel or destroy while manipulating and brush stroking commercial glazes? Im just curious as I dont have my own kiln yet and have to travel with my glazed pieces so thats why I use only liquid commercial glazes. Thank you!
No, it isn't too chalky. I do know what you mean, there are some glazes that seem to just powder off of the bisque dish. Some glazes with a heavy clay base will occasionally crack. Amaco Oatmeal is one that might be hard to transport. The ones I mentioned in the video would be fine.
Yes, definitely. I use Laguna wax, which I paint on the bottoms. After that, I still take a damp sponge and wipe off any excess glaze from the bottoms.
Hey, that's a bit of a tricky question. I mixed that in a 2 gallon bucket and had room left at the top. So 4000g of dry ingredients is around 1 gallon, then adding 3200ml of water to that... but it's not quite by volume, as the dry ingredients have space between them for the water... so something like 1.5 gallons.

YES!! I agree! So glad to hear someone else is having the same great results!
Thanks for the video. And a special Thanks for you showing the safty aspect and using metric system.
Thanks for watching. So glad you liked it!

Thank you soo much for breaking down how to figure out cost on making your own glazes🇨🇦❤️

Amazing video!! You are so lovely! Thanks a lot for sharing and all your tips 🙂

@@threelittlepottersI don't mind the music fwiw but I think I'd rather have you explain what you're doing verbally instead of using captions.
@@EricMayers Maybe voice over next time I do a mixing video? It's definitely limiting with the mask on.
TY for this- I really need to take this dive and this is the perfect one! So glade you shared! 💙
You are so welcome!
just found your channel and love it! I can't wait to mix up this glaze. Thank you ♥
I think you'll really love that glaze! Thanks for watching!
GREAT INFO THANKS
Thank you so much for watching. I hope it helps!
Thankyou. I looked at studio white but hadn’t taken the plunge. I’m off to mix and test a batch.
That glaze is such a favorite of mine, I hope you'll love it!
GREAT video! Thanks so much ❣️
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for posting this video , I’m going to give this a try … I’ve never mixed glazes before …. Is there another one you would recommend?

I am sure there is, I just haven't tested any. Maybe I can order one and test it out against mine. If I do, I'll make a video for you.

I just got my studio white.
Exciting! Let me know how it goes.
What mesh silica do you use? Thx!
I use 325 mesh.
@@threelittlepotters thx
Did you wipe off the white from the bottom of your bowls?
Yes, definitely. I use Laguna wax, which I paint on the bottoms. After that, I still take a damp sponge and wipe off any excess glaze from the bottoms.
How many gallons of glaze did you make with 4000 grams of dry ingredients?
Hey, that's a bit of a tricky question. I mixed that in a 2 gallon bucket and had room left at the top. So 4000g of dry ingredients is around 1 gallon, then adding 3200ml of water to that... but it's not quite by volume, as the dry ingredients have space between them for the water... so something like 1.5 gallons.
@@threelittlepotters thanks so much!
