Hi can you use these stains with gum Arabic and ontop of glazed tiles?

You would have to mix them with underglaze flux first to make them into an underglaze so that it will adhere to the vessel once fired, if you just use the stain as it is it will remain powdery.

You can add from as little as 1% for a translucent colour or up to 6-8% for an opaque coloured glaze.

Hi I I want to use these stains to highlight some texture and then put an earthenware crackel glaze over that , what's the best way to apply please ?

Hi there, you could add 25% flux (eg a transparent glaze) and that would ensure the stain sticks to the body. Hope this helps.
