New test tile pictures! Includes our new Matcha glaze and new Bmix test tiles, which should be a lot more accurate than our old tiles! Of course, seeing the colors in-person will yield the best results.



Pinholes on commercial glazes

Hi! I used 2 commercial glazes from speedball and coyote and both came with pinholes, inside and outside of the pieces. The glazes are matte. Anyone knows why I got them? Would a refire

fix them?

Sometimes referring helps, but it depends on why the pinholes formed. In your case like Gina mentioned, it could be that it’s one layer too thick or so. Meaning the gases in the glaze couldn’t escape, and so a bubble formed. If you want to refire, it’s worth a shot, but just know it might not smooth out the bubbles and a real solution will probably be to test them at different amounts of layering

Hi! I’m currently working on a hand built sculpture of a tortoise and have yet to use the studios glazes on any of my sculpture work. I have used them on my pottery before but not on anything like this. I am looking to just dip it all at once but have never seen any of the glazes used on more hand built pieces. If anyone has any recommendations of glazes that will sit well on my texture and not muddle the piece, let me know. I also included a picture for example, although it’s not close to finished yet.

The printer has been messed up. Jessica said to use the one that’s in the doorway next to the class wheel room
