In this video I go over how to mix the glaze Studio White, I break down the cost, the method for mixing, and finish up with some glaze inspiration.
Here's the recipe for the glaze being used in the video: glazy.org/recipes/7973

I’m convinced this glaze is magic. I always have a great big bucket of it in my studio. It goes on nicely, never flakes off, doesn’t pinhole or crawl and plays well with others. It does a stellar job of highlighting texture, and I recently discovered it’s the perfect base to add mason stains, so one pail of this plus a handful of stains and I have a whole palate of colors to use!

Oh good I am glad you found that helpful. I always get mad when people break down the cost as though you were a huge factory and getting a mega bulk discount on the ingredients.

Thanks for the video! I think I am going to have to give this recipe a try. The white I use in my studio tends to crawl when I use commercial glazes over top, which is very annoying.

I hope it will work as great for you as it does for me!

@@EricMayers Maybe voice over next time I do a mixing video? It's definitely limiting with the mask on.

thank you so much for the inspo and information! I absolutely fell in love wih your kiln openings as you do have so many glazes combos... I got curious about 'dirty snow' since viewing them, are they both similar or do you use them for different effects?

@threelittlepotters 21 күн бұрын

Dirty Snow which can be found on glazy.org is currently my favorite flux glaze. I am planning to do a video on some of my favorite glazes to use on rims. Dirty Snow has a lot of titanium in it, so it's like the white version of a flux. You can use it in the same way you might use Mayco light flux. Lynette Opal which was my long time favorite before that one is more of a beige flux since it has a lot more rutile in it. So for many combos I will do a dipped base of studio white, a brush of another glaze and then Dirty Snow just on the rim, unless it's a bowl and I have a place for the glaze runs to pool.

Hi, Im just starting my glaze journey and really found this video helpful.. Just wondering if there is a commercial glaze that has the same effect as this studio glaze? I am not yet able to buy all these ingredients and mix it myself, but do see the benefit of a white glaze base! Thank you!

@threelittlepotters Ай бұрын

I am sure there is, I just haven't tested any. Maybe I can order one and test it out against mine. If I do, I'll make a video for you.

@@threelittlepotters Thank you! It’s unfortunate that not all commercial glazes have a specific ingredient list (which I do understand from a business perspective) so you can’t compare opacity or pigment. That means testing out different brands yourself and that’s kinda expensive 😅 haha.. But I might just buy a white glaze to see if it works, if not I’ll just use it on it’s own.. Thanks again! 😊

Did you wipe off the white from the bottom of your bowls?

@threelittlepotters Ай бұрын

Yes, definitely. I use Laguna wax, which I paint on the bottoms. After that, I still take a damp sponge and wipe off any excess glaze from the bottoms.

How many gallons of glaze did you make with 4000 grams of dry ingredients?

@threelittlepotters Ай бұрын

Hey, that's a bit of a tricky question. I mixed that in a 2 gallon bucket and had room left at the top. So 4000g of dry ingredients is around 1 gallon, then adding 3200ml of water to that... but it's not quite by volume, as the dry ingredients have space between them for the water... so something like 1.5 gallons.
