Hi Kabe,

     They batch them at the store and you can buy them wet or dry.  They are finally getting around to batching up the crystalline glazes that he formulated for them.  They are ^6 and they don't run.  I was able to fire a couple of tests for him when he was developing them.  I'm still bugging them to sell me some dry w/o colorants so I can do my own experimenting with my own colorants

Thanks. Jeff. Does your friend make the glazes for them and bag them up or are the premixed with water?

We recently had a new ceramic supply house open here and my friend went to work for them formulating clay & glazes.  These are 2 of them.  I have just begun to experiment with the layering process.  They are available from Ceramic Supply USA(in Slat Lake City). They have them on their website, but I don't think they have prices up yet, but you can email them & they will email you a pricelist.  They are pretty reasonable & they have a lot of nice glazes for ^04 up to ^10.  Check it out......   jhp

very nice. I have been out of the loop for a spell so I need to ask are the two glazes commercial or are they on insight live? Happy firing Kabe
