Light Magma and Dark Magma were developed to create a rough, cratered surface. The thicker the application, the more textured the surface will be. Magma can be directly applied to bisqueware or in combination with other mid-range glazes.
Magma: Shake and stir well. For shown chip results, apply directly to bisqueware. Apply 2-3 coats. Allow glaze to semi-dry between coats. The thicker the application, the more textured the surface will be. A thicker application can be achieved by blotting or dotting the glaze onto the piece. Light Magma does not crater as much as the Dark Magma. We suggest using up to 5 coats to increase Light Magma texture. Can be applied with slip trailer. Due to the surface texture, we recommend that these glazes only be used on decorative surfaces. You may experience slight crumbling.
Cone 6 (1st photo): Dark Magma is a charcoal-colored, high-texture glaze that creates a rough, cratered surface. The thicker the application, the more textured the surface will be.
Cone 10 (2nd photo): Texture slightly flattens. No change in color.
