Decals – The Learning Continues






I’ve been so busy testing, developing, throwing, deciding. Even with a heavy workload at work I’ve had so much fun continuing on my decal journey. I’m still not confident on what causes changes in looks in decals but I have moved a long way towards being consistent with the glaze, decals that don’t burn out and firing processes with the glazes I use.

I’ve learned so far the Coyote Clay Shino & Light Shino thickness plays a large part in the appearance of the decal. They have to be fired back to Cone 1 to keep the glaze from turning to underfired matte. They don’t seem to eat the decals as some other glazes I’ve tried.

I see my testing continuing for quite a long period of time as I try to find different combinations. How fun is that!
