Can these glazes be used on other clay apart from porcelain fired to 1200°c? Regards

You can but the colours will differ, the porcelain clay is very white and gives excellent bright vivid colours the trouble with using a body like stoneware for example the colours may look muted and dirty, hope this helps.

Does this glaze run at all?

This is quite a stable glaze and would only run if fired to high, hope this helps.

Is this glaze food safe?

If a glaze is food safe our not depends on several factors including the type of clay used, the firing temperature, the shape of the vessel, the thickness of glaze even the position of the vessel in the kiln can have an effect on the glaze. Ideally a food safe test would be carried out by a reputable body like British Ceram. In the case of the glaze mentioned it would most likely pass a food safe test providing it was fired on a suitable body like our ES5 Earthstone Original in an electric kiln and to the suggested firing temperature.
