I have completed my pinch pot and coil pot and need to glaze my extra credit project for the second time. The glazes I used for my pinch pot were, Blue rutile (bucket), Dark Blue (bucket), and concpet glazes. I used Second Hand Rose (bucket) and Turkish Amber (bucket) for my coil pot.
It is important to wash your hand and wipe your project before glazing because any dust that sticks to the project will prevent the glaze from coming out evenly. You need to apply was resist to the bottom of your project if you are using bucket glazes to prevent glaze from sticking to the bottom and fusing the projec to the keln when firing. When using a bucket glaze, you should dunk the project for about a second to the second and a half. You cannot brush on bucket glazes because the glaze will not fire evently.
