Product Features

• Foundations dry quickly – great for easy handling, additional decoration and same day firing
• Intermixable for custom colour creation
• Compatible with Mayco Stroke & Coats – with many coordinating colours between the ranges
• Steadfast Application – Foundations will not dissolve or “pick up” previous coats of glaze
• Can be applied to greenware or leather-hard clay. We recommend leaving an area unglazed, such as the back or bottom, to allow outgassing during the firing process
• Can be applied with brush, sponge stamp
• Non-toxic, non-hazardous and food safe

Tips:

• For large areas, use of a soft fan brush is recommended, applying coats in one direction to minimise brush marks.
• Many Foundations can be fired to higher temperatures and still maintain their colour. Check the individual colour label for performance at cone 6.
