Welcome back all you cool clay makers and builders! By request we are covering mason stains! This week we are focusing on how to use mason stains to create colored slip and clay. In order to test the mason stain for opacity of color we will perform a line blend. A line blend increases the ratio of stain to bone dry clay. Next time we will cover washes.
Please let us know if there are any techniques you would like covered. This video is for the week of May 24-27, 2021. Thank you for watching! :)

How are you subtracting the weight of the bucket? Should not the scale be balanced before putting the material into the empty bucket?

The scale was tared for the weight of the bucket. We did all of that off camera.

Hi! Are all Mason stains food safe, after applying food safe glaze?

When you purchase your mason stains you will have to check the MSDS for it, or contact the manufacturer. I know in our studio we only use food safe dry materials therefore the ones shown are. we need to consistently keep checking though. Material we once thought was safe in no longer like Talc. So if this video lingers in the online world long enough some of the material may be found to be not food safe. The only way to really know is keep checking with the manufacturer or the clay supply store where you purchased your materials.
