Laguna Metallic Lusters
These overglazes add jewel-like and precious metal decoration to already
glazed pieces. Laguna offers high quality European metallic lusters
available in two popular colors. The 8% concentration of metal exceeds
most other products on the market and provides excellent coverage
and brilliant results.
Apply to the clean, dry surface of your glass with a natural hair
brush. For fine lines use a striping brush like Laguna Clay's EB-856
Camel Hair Sword Striper. Liquid Metallics apply smoother and easier
on a warm surface and on a warm day (warmer than 72°F).
To achieve concentric circles; use a banding wheel, kick wheel, or
bat attached to a potters wheel to achieve a steady spin on the glass
while applying with a brush. Using a Grabber Pad will assist in keeping
your glass in place while you work.
The wrinkled gold or palladium, is achieved by applying the gold or
palladium atop the pre-fired Wrinkle Cream that has been properly
washed. Unwashed surfaces sometimes produce brass or pewter colors,
respectively. |
Liquid Metallics are typically applied just before the slumping process.
Suggested firing temperature is 1100°F. Laguna Liquid Metallics
have been successfully fired as high as 1550°F; results may vary.
