Courtyard Art Glazes- CY's
Courtyard Glazes These unique, self-antiquing, lead-free matte glazes
Courtyard Glazes
Thanks to lead-free, matte Courtyard Art Glazes, you can give your ware that rich,
antiqued look in a variety of colors.
Also, these glazes are truly unique, with no two firings giving exactly the same results.
Courtyard Art Glazes work well with Concepts Underglazes for Majolica
and Bisque.
How to use Courtyard Glazes
1. Always damp - sponge ware lightly before applying glaze.
2. Courtyard Art Glazes can be applied with a sponge, spritz bottle or brush.
3. For both Low Fire and High Fire Applications, apply 2-5 coats to cone 04 bisque.
4. For Low Fire, stilt and fire to cone 06. for High Fire, fire to cone 5-6. (see label)
5. For High Fire, because high fire clays vary, we recommend firing a test piece.
6. Let dry between coats.
7. Water cleanup
- Notes::
- Courtyard Art Glazes can be brushed, sponged, butted together with other glazes n layered over one another.
- The shape of the ware and the thickness of application will influence the final appearance.
- ..........
- When working on a smooth surfaced piece, sponge the glaze on for the first coat.
This will eliminate brush strokes, especially on the pastel colors.
- to apply the glaze to detailed ware use an inexpensive, soft bristle glaze brush, for best results
- ..........
- When spritzing on Courtyard Art Glazes, use the spray or mist setting for base coat coverage.
- For full coverage, spritz on 3-4 coats depending on the color of glaze; lighter colors require more coats.
- To create detail over Spritzing, mix 1/2 Concepts color and 1/2 water.
- Use stream setting on spritz bottle for thin lines of color, spots or drip effects.
- ..........
- For a raku look:, try applying them to greenware.
Brush 2-3 coats of glaze onto detailed greenware. Fire to cone 04.
The color will change a bit but the glaze will look like a Raku stoneware,
hugging and shiny in the crevasses and dry on the high detail.
- ..........
- Decals on Fired Product
Apply three coats Courtyard Art Glazes. Fire. Apply decals
. Refire to cone 017.
- ..........
- Weathered look: (Birdhouse)
Glaze with two generous coats of Burnt Clay.
Brush Saddle Clove on edges of shingles for a weathered tin look.
- ..........
- Available in warm, rich colors, these glazes reflect the beauty of a
rustic courtyard setting
and are perfect for home decor pieces.
- With different applications of color layering,
n different applications techniques,
you'll get unique artistic pieces every time.
Always refer to label instructions for proper application and usage.
