The fundamentals can be used in a variety of ways.

  • 3 layers give an even covering result. Less is of course also possible if you want a less opaque effect.
    It is also possible to dilute it with water to create a watercolor/watercolor effect.
  • You can apply it to wet clay, leather hard or cookie fired clay.
  • To be used in combination with Graffito technique, majolica, splatter.
  • Fundamentals can be mixed with mayco’s other glaze lines such as foundations or strokes and coats.
  • To finish them you can apply a transparent glaze over them, matte or glossy. Pottery or stoneware temperature. This can be co-fired already in the first firing. When everything is thoroughly dry apply the transparent layer.
    Because of the gases you may get some surface problems, this can usually be prevented by e.g. 15 minutes commuting at desired temperature.

If you want to fire them at high temperature, it is advisable to check the label to see what the color does at high temperature.
