Hello,
Can these slips be used on stoneware?
I am decorating using a mishima technique (inlaying) and have seen other makers are using porcelain slip, as apposed to stoneware. I am guessing because it's easier to remove.
Thanks

Yes this is possible depending on the shrinkage of the clay you may have a little bit of cracking but overall should work well on most bodies.

Hi, do you know what the shrinkage percentage is? I am looking to use this to decorate a stoneware with about 6% shrinkage. Thanks

Hi, this is a porcelain decorating slip, it won't fit a stoneware body. You'd be much better using our DS1009 or NDS032 White Decorating Slips. Hope this helps!
