Mayco Foundations Glazes 473ml

Foundations® glazes are available in a broad assortment of colors, opacities, and textures. Foundations® glazes dry quickly, allowing immediate additional decorating and same day firing.  They easily serve as the basic “foundation” glaze for any ceramic studio – be that in a school, home or your retail studio.

Foundations® glazes were designed to mature at a shelf cone 06/05. Apply 2-3 coats, on cone 04 bisque, allowing surface to dry in-between coats. Foundations® dries quickly and speeds up your ability to handle or perform additional decorating. 

Foundations® have been formulated to mature at cone 06/05. However most will maintain their color at higher temperatures. Their performance at cone 6 is noted on each individual product label. We recommend testing on your clay body and in your kiln prior to use.

• Foundations® dry quickly for same day firing.
• Intermixable for custom color creation
• 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.
• Many Foundations® can be fired to higher temperatures and still maintain their color. Check the individual color label for performance at cone 6.
• Foundations® will not dissolve or “pick up” previous coats of glaze, making them great for steadfast application.
