Amaco Majolica Gloss Majolica Gloss Decorating Colors have been developed specifically to produce the Majolica technique.  These are low fired glazes which can be used up to Cone 5.  Each of these can be applied directly over unfired White glaze (HF11 for high fire.)  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.   Semi-transparent.    GDC Series  WET

Lead Free, Non Toxic. WC, V, SG
