Mayco's Stoneware Specialty Glaze

Stoneware specialty glazes were developed for special effects and surface depth. Crackle Matte Clear was developed for mid-range firing temperatures where a fine crackle pattern will develop with 2-3 coats.

To highlight the crackle pattern, after firing, wipe black acrylic or ink over the ware and wipe off, allowing the ink to fill the cracks. Crackle Matte Clear is a soft matte, semi-transparent glaze that develops a fine crackle pattern.
