Mayco Jungle Gems and Crystalites glazes

Drama and excitement!  These beautiful glazes transform in the kiln when small pieces of glass frit burst into colour and crazy patterns during the firing process.  Fire at 999°C - or go higher for different results. Use alone for stunning effects - or combine with the other glazes in the Mayco range - eg Cobblestones - Stroke & Coat - Foundations.   Review individual jar lanbels for cone 6 results.  Layer with other Jungle Gems or Crystalites for even more fascinating combinations.

They call it ART IN A JAR for good reason.

To apply - shake the jar well and apply 3 coats, allowing each one to dry before next application.  Avoid placing the cystals at the bottom of the ware, especially if firing to higher temperatures.  Recommended to use a soft fan brush for even placement of the crystals. Use a complementary Foundations glaze in order to make your crystals go further.

Note - the crystals will melt when fired, which may create a textured surface.  As that surface may be difficult to properly clean if in contact with food, we recommend crystal glazes be used on decorative ware only.  Non-toxic
