Gold Glaze

The the gold metallic end result of this glaze is beautiful after it has been fired. Application is a bit tricky. It is extremely dry when applying this glaze to bisque-ware. The dried glaze wants to flake off. It seems to need more xanthan gum to allow it to flow. I definitely use this glaze in my work, it just takes longer to apply than most other glazes

You definitely need four coats and high fire and it’s absolutely stunning! UPDATE AFTER LEAVING MY GLAZE SITTING FOR POSSIBLY TWO MONTHS WHEN I OPENED IT UP IT WAS SOLID EXCEPT FOR A LAYER ON TOP. NOW TRYING TO GET IT MIXED IS A TOP THAT I DON’T EVEN KNOW IF I CAN DO. WHAT A MESS. TOO BAD BECAUSE THE PRODUCT IS WONDERFUL EXCEPT FOR THIS PROBLEM. THE ONLY THING I RECOMMEND IS JUST STIRRING IT OR PLACING IT UPSIDE DOWN EVERY SO OFTEN. DON’T JUST LET IT SIT THERE AND FORGET ABOUT IT. TO ME IT REMINDS ME OF BREAST-FEEDING A CHILD THAT CONSTANTLY NEEDS NURTURING.

Very Disappointed Unfortunately, I was extremely disappointed with this product. After firing, it did not turn out gold as advertised. Instead, it came out black and left a rough texture, even though it was properly mixed and applied according to the instructions. The results were so poor that I had to refund all of my customers who used this product on their pottery pieces. This was not only disappointing, but also costly and frustrating for my business and my customers. I would not recommend this product based on my experience. I expected much better results and was very disappointed with the quality and performance.

Works great, 4 coats fired to cone 6 gives you a very gold like sheen to pottery.

When I bought this a year ago it worked great, but the last two bottle I’ve gotten have had terrible crazing despite doing 8 different test tiles with different applications. There’s no getting it right- you either get a good batch that’s worth its weight in gold or you get a crummy batch that’s worth will flake off and ruin your piece. Avoid it is my ten cents or if you must use it test it first. No glaze should be this finicky and paddler needs to work in their quality control

Good product. No major complaints. Just wish you didn't have to use so many coats to get the 'gold' look.

I did three coats with no layering (as recommended). When some glaze accidentally overlapped, it became dark. In the photo, its next to Penguin Candy Apple Red celadon. All are on Laguna Clay B-Mix mid-fire. I fast fired to cone 6. Love the result. Based on the performance of this product, I will buy more glazes from Pasler.

Tried once. LOVE! This is a flat lip of a vase that I'm showing in my picture and although you can't see inside the glaze didn't really run down and pool a lot. I had read what a lot of other users had indicated in some of the glazing groups that I belong to and the discussion was between 4:00 and six codes. I put this glaze on the inside and the edge of this tiny vase though I did do 4 coats inside, and 6 thin coats on rim. It is a very medium thin glaze that goes on nicely. And frankly I am out of my mind happy with the color. My next piece I'm going to redux coats to 5 light coats and see how that works because people said they were fine with only 4, some said 6--- So you know it all depends on the user how this will work for you I decided to try the highest level first. I don't think six is necessary. Of course this glaze is cheaper than other most known brands and yet it isn't cheaper when you consider extra coats. So you'd have to figure it out for yourself with the color is worth it.. I don't use gold a lot however this is going to be just an exquisite touch to certain pieces.

This glaze IS like liquid gold, and it's becoming more precious than real gold. It is NOT a gold overglaze luster. It will not do fancy writing on top of another glaze, and it won't make a pretty gold rim, but it WILL turn out pretty much like the test tile in the photo. It fires great at Cone 6. It doesn't run on its own, but it WILL run like the dickens if it so much as breathes near another glaze. So, be aware of that. It is fabulous, and worth the $$.

Nao fica dourado como na foto

The glaze arrived settled and lumpy/gritty and required a lot of work including sieving before use. At this price I expected better quality ex factory. However it is a really good shiny gold if fired to Cone 6.

私の場合、4回塗って1230度で焼いたが、こんな明るい金色にはならなかった。もう少し暗い、アンティークな感じの金色。あと重ねる分よく流れるから注意が必要。

great product prompt delivery, reasonable price
