Application Instructions
- Open jar and pour out any excess liquid. Gloop functions better with minimum water content.
- Shake or mix gloop
- Gloop works best with a pudding or frosting consistency. If you want to dry out your gloop you can leave the lid off overnight.
- Apply underglaze to ware
- Apply gloop to underglazed ceramics
- Fire to cone 5 or 6
- To protect kiln shelves, a layer of kiln dust may be used under ceramics to ensure no gloop sticks to kiln shelves.
- If an overall glaze finish is required , a low fire clear glaze may be applied to areas of exposed underglaze. all over or simply around the gloop.
- Fire again to low fire temperature according to low fire glaze instructions. Gloop will not melt again at this low temperature and piece will be fully glazed.
Handy Tips
- Fill squeeze tube with Dry Gloop and apply pea size balls to get the pearl droplet effect.
- Apply Dry Gloop as a thick paste to get the crackle effect. Paste should be roughly 1cm thick for optimal texture.
- Gloop adheres best to an underglaze base. It is not recommended to apply gloop to an active glaze as it will lose its shape.
- This glaze was designed for cone 5/6 temperatures.
- It will not melt at lower temperatures. Gloop will melt more at higher temperatures (cone 7 and up) resulting in an effect which is more like more like Wizard Meltdown
