AMACO Gloss Glaze 

GLAMLGSample2.jpg (40864 bytes)
Created with LG-53 Flame, LT-3 Old Pewter, and L-518 Lustre Gold

Bright Opaque and transparent colors characterize this popular LG Gloss Glaze series.  These glazes fire to a smooth, glossy finish at a witness Cone 05.  Always slow fire lead free glazes for the best results.  For a clear, all over covering glaze, you have a choice of LG9 with lead or LG10 without lead.  LG10 has a smooth and high gloss surface.  Make sure it reaches a mature witness Cone 05.  You might apply it thinner than usual for best results.  Two coats are usually enough.  LG9 is very forgiving in firing, but does contain lead and precautions should be taken.  Clear glaze can be used over the Amaco LUG series, Velvet, and GDC Gloss Decorating Colors.    LG sample here

All lead free except #9, 53, 56, 66.  All dinnerware safe except #27, 53, 56, 66.  All are AP non-toxic except 2, 9, 25, 26, 27, 44, 45, 46, 53, 56, 66.

LG #53, 56 and 66, are lead/cadmium red glazes.  Brilliant Red, Orange and Yellow glazes belong to a family of glazes which are traditionally temperamental.  To ensure good results, be very careful that these glazes are not overfired.  Their limit is Cone 06, preferably by cone observation.  Apply only to bisque.  Apply heavily (twice as thick as usual).  Fire these brilliant colors together, leaving space between pieces, avoid firing with greens, fire quickly 3-4 hours with peepholes open, fire only to cone 06 as measured by  a cone inside the kiln.  It is best if you have a vent, as these glazes need a lot of oxygen.  

The new lead free reds and oranges are much less finicky than the leaded ones.  LG57, 58, 59, 63, 67 and 68: just apply 3 normal coats and fire to witness ,Cone 05, and Amaco swears they will come out perfect!  They are very bright and translucent. 

The codes in ( ) are explained at the bottom of the page.
