G2926B Gloss Clear

For Plainsman Cone 6 Bodies. We document procedures to mix this as a brushing glaze, dipping glaze or base coat dipping glaze.

It has the lower thermal expansion necessary to fit (without crazing). It sources boron from a frit instead of troublesome Gerstley Borate.

Firing

It is standard practice to fire cone 6 using a hold (or soak) at top temperature schedule (e.g. for 30 minutes) to produce a defect-free glaze. However we recommend a drop-and-hold firing schedule (like PLC6DS). Both require manual programming of your kiln (because none of the built-in programs do any kind of hold). If you have not manually programmed your kiln, this is a barrier is worth crossing to produce more defect-free glaze surfaces. For the best possible surface consider a slow cool (like C6DHSC).
