If a glaze is food safe or 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. Ideally a food safe test would be carried out by a reputable body like Lucideon. 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 Original in an electric kiln and to the recommended firing temperatures.

Can this glaze be brushed on the pot? And if not what can I add to this glaze to make it possible?

Hi, this is formulated as a dipping glaze, Terracolor advise that you do not use their dipping glazes as brushing glazes. Hope this helps!

Can your stoneware powered glazes (eg.656,6624) be sprayed on and if so would I need any medium.
Thanks,
Nick

To make a glaze for spraying simply mix with water and pass through a fine mesh sieve (100mesh). Medium is only used to make brush on glazes.

Terracolor Powder Stoneware Glazes are a more cost effective and faster approach to glazing a larger volume of pots. Simply mix the powder with water and pass through a sieve to create a dipping glaze. All Terracolor glazes are Lead Free.
