Low Fire Glazes (cone 06-04)

GLOSSY finishes

Teacher's Choice and Teacher's Pallet
TC, TP
A new line of Duncan glazes designed for limited budgets.  8 colors come in gallons.  They are economical because they aren't super pigmented.  16 additional super pigmented colors come in gallons and may be used to tint the gallons.  All colors can be mixed and matched to achieve an unlimited color pallet.  GREAT FOR SCHOOLS
Duncan Pure Brilliance Clear Glaze
NEW!
New Duncan Clear Glaze.  Non-leaded, non-toxic, crystal clear!   
Amaco F-Series
F   
F-Series glazes are fritted, leadless compositions.  They are semi-opaque and fire with a high gloss.  Colors are more intense and brilliant than those of many other glazes.  Because they are leadless, they are recommended for functional ware.  GREAT FOR SCHOOLS  Apply to cone 04 bisque by brushing, dipping or pouring; fire to cone 05.
Duncan Envision 
IN  
     
Lead-free cousin to Duncan's popular Gloss Glazes.  They work with a variety of decorating techniques and produce a distinctively smooth and elegant appearance in colors ranging from opaque to transparent.  Envisions move very little during firing, so apply them with smooth, even strokes.  Most colors may be mixed together to create custom colors with no changes in application or performance.  All are safe for use on food containers.  Transparent and opaque. 
Amaco Gloss   
LG
     
Bright Opaque and transparent colors characterize this popular LG Gloss Glaze series.  These glazes flow during firing to a high gloss while correcting most application defects.  Because of their flexibility, good results can be obtained on many clays.  Some colors contain lead.  
Amaco Majolica Gloss  
GDC     

 

Majolica Gloss Decorating Colors have been developed specifically to produce the Majolica technique.  Each of these can be applied directly over unfired Amaco Opaque White glaze (LG11.)  The special formulation means that no clear covering glaze is necessary.  Colors will fire glossy and assume the smooth surface of the white base glaze.  In addition to the Majolica technique, these can be used for over all coverage or to design over the bisque with no additional glaze over or under it.  All are lead free, and have tested dinnerware safe alone and over Amaco LG11.  They will also product excellent results when used over most of the LG, F, LM and DG series, but have not been tested for dinnerware safety.  In liquid form all are AP Non-Toxic.  Semi-transparent.
Duncan Designer Glazes  new! DG  New Designer Glazes™ get their name from Fashion Couture! Fabrics, textures, colors!   It is all about a high-end look for your home and creativity!  Colors break. Duncan Designer Glazes™ work in perfect harmony with other Duncan glazes and underglazes as well as in combination with each other for dramatic results.  All non-toxic.  
Amaco Opalescent
O   
Opalescent Glazes may be used on any clay, but they develop their greatest opalescence and most interesting textures when applied to red clay.  Most have a high gloss with an iridescence similar to mother-of-pearl.  Best results are achieved with three or four applications of glaze.  On textured ware, the glaze flows thin on relief and thick in incised areas, giving an added dimension on the surface.  May be used in Raku firing.  May give interesting effects at high temperatures.  Opaque and dinnerware safe.  
Spectrum Opaque Gloss 700's   
Opaque, glossy.  Non-toxic and dinnerware safe.  INCLUDING NEW 748 Fire Engine Red (It's Guaranteed!)

MATTE Finishes

Spectrum Low Stone
900's  
New Low Fire Glazes from Spectrum designed to look like high fired stoneware.    Lead free and dinnerware safe.  Translucent and opaque.   
Duncan Satin  SN  Clear and white matte glazes.  These glazes are all non-toxic, dinnerware safe, and overglaze compatible.  
Amaco Matt 
LM   
The LM Matt Glaze Series is one of the most pleasing for decorative art pottery.  Because these glazes move very little in the glaze firing, they are excellent for creative design work and controlled glazing techniques.  These glazes are all non-toxic and dinnerware safe.  Most colors are opaque.
Amaco Stone Texture
ST   
A smooth, unique stone-like surface when fired over a Cone 04 bisque.  The ST glaze series flows a little in the firing, settling in the crevices and towards the bottom of a vertical surface.  Therefore, when applied over a textured surface they will produce antique-like variations or a weathered and worn out look on the higher relief areas of the piece. 

Special Effects (glossy and matte)

Amaco Artists Choice
A   
Cone 05 oxidation glazes that look like high fired reduction stoneware.  They can be fired over any earthenware clay; however they look their best over dark or red firing clay.  The color in the clay will partially show through the texture and add another color dimension to the glaze.  These glazes will look completely different depending on the clay they are applied on.
Spectrum Raised Accent Colors    RAC   Slip based colors (or engobes) which are available in applicator pens with a fine metal tip for decorating on greenware or bisque.  They create embossed or raised designs on ceramic decorative work because the colors do not flatten out when they are fired. 
Amaco Magic Flow  MF    New line of flowing glaze that simulates reduction Ash Glazes.  
Duncan French  Dimensions    FD   High-pile glazes for raised design effects over and under nonmoving glazes and over each other.  Non-toxic, but not recommended for use on food containers due to raised surface. 
Duncan Specialty  SY, AN   Metallic Glazes with a slight filigree effect.  Use for solid coverage or accenting.   Snow produced billowy white texture that simulates snow, ocean foam, clouds, etc.   Antique Blue is a rich, medium blue with metallic gold highlights.  
Duncan Crystals & Crackles   CR     
  
These special effects glazes are among the easiest to use and create some of the most dazzling effects. Crackle glazes create random hairline cracks with interesting patterns.   They allow some clay color to show through the glaze.  They are non-toxic but not recommended for dinnerware.  The remaining glazes feature opaque gloss colors with embedded color crystals that melt and run during the firing process.  Each firing results in unique and magical flow patterns that give these glazes their magical appeal.  Non-toxic and dinnerware safe.  
Amaco Crystaltex       CTL    Crystaltex glazes are for the potter who dares to try something novel.  Multi-color effects can be subtle as with #32, which fires to a creamy yellow peppered with rich brown, or they can be flashy like the red, white and blue of #54.  No two pieces will ever be alike, but all will be unique.  These liquid glazes consist of a basic color with the addition of one or more crystals of contrasting colors.  Crystals fan out on flat horizontal surfaces and run on vertical pieces.  Many are lead free and dinnerware safe. 
Duncan Courtyard
CY 
Courtyard Art Glazes are self-antiquing matte glazes that result in rich varied color.  No two firings will give exactly the same results.  They work well with Concepts Underglazes for bisque.  
Amaco Alligator
LT  
With Textured Alligator Glazes, no two pieces are ever alike due to the many variations in texture which occur in firing.  Variegated matt textures predominate at the lower firing temperatures and gloss textures at the higher with a mingling of matt and gloss between the extremes.  Apply to bisque or greenware by brushing, pouring or dipping.  Some are dinnerware safe and non-toxic.  
Amaco Specialty Glazes  
L, SP, AR   

 

Snowfluff: A white foaming type texture glaze and completely matte.  It can be tinted into rich pastel shades.  Can be applied over, under or between unfired glazes for unusual texture combinations.  
White Pebble: Has a pebbly appearance as it breaks up into a pattern resembling pearl tapioca after firing.  Overdrift: An opaque, frosty white glaze, heavy in consistency.  It is indispensable in combination glaze techniques.  It renders a cascade of white floats when applied over or under a glaze.  
Lustre and Metallics: Provide the metallic look of hard steel and the high brilliance of lustre.  
Arroya Glazes
: Textured and produce a unique carved effect when fired.  Designed for use over gloss and matte unfired glazes, Arroya glazes are best applied with a fully loaded fan blender for all-over coverage or with a sponge using a pouncing method.  
Amaco Old World Crackle Glazes 
CR  
Formulated to produce a network of cracks on the fired ware similar to crazing.  To emphasize the crackle after firing, swab the fine lines with colored inks.  Recommended for use on decorative items only as it does not seal the surface of the ware as other glazes do.   They work well for raku too.
Amaco Glaze Crystals
AC  
One or more colors of crystals can be added to a base glaze for exciting results.  Each piece of pottery is one-of-a-kind, never to be duplicated.  Apply the crystals by placing them where desired on the piece while the glaze is still wet.  When fired, the crystals flow into the base glaze.  
Spectrum Glaze Crystals  

 

All Glaze Crystals are lead-free and food safe when fired to a minimum cone 06.  These crystals are very versatile and can be used successfully from cone 06 to cone 6. They can be used with any glaze in this firing range to produce a great variety of different appearances.  They can also be intermixed.  Many beautiful combinations of two or more colored crystals on your choice of glaze background can be used.
Spectrum Oxide Pens 
18xx
These oxide pens contain various oxides, such as copper oxide, cobalt oxide, etc, suspended in water with small quantities of additives such as frit which improves their performance.
