Newer potter, interested in this technique. Is it correct to say, for the sample plates shown, they were bisque fired then design colored with oxide wash, then glazed with clear and glaze fired. OR were they glazed and when dry oxide design applied, then fired.
are these compatible with glazes that are not mayco brand? curious about both situations - if i apply to leatherhard and bisque fire then apply a non-mayco glaze will that work? and also if I apply on bisque under one of a non mayco glaze?
It depends on what glaze you are applying on top! If you look at the tiles in the video, those were fired vertically and there is no movement, but if you were to apply a very mobile glaze on top, you might get some of the wash pulled into the glaze or a blur of your lines if you are doing designs. Particularly with the Cobalt rather than the Iron and Rutile.
We can't ever guarantee the food safety or dinnerware safety when products are mixed. These are dinnerware safe when used according to manufacturer's directions.
Love the washes!!! Great video!!
Thanks Carmen!!
As these are “liquid oxides” can I mix them with slip to make a colored slip that I can use on leather hard clay and layer different colors?
Sure thing!

These techniques were applied directly to the bisque.

Please email technical@maycocolors.com with these questions. They will provide the best answers!
Is the clear glaze applied over the wash or under? I have, in the past, used washes under glaze finishes, but never tried it on top.
The clear glaze was applied over the wash.
They are stable on plates, but what about vertical surfaces?

can these works have food on them ? food safe even if the glazes are mixed?
