<p>What end up working best is mixing a little Elmers with the Glaze. If you put too much Elmers it won't crawl as well. Putting a layer of Elmers on the pot and the glaze over it doesn't do anythingAnd.</p>

<p>The only time I have used it is when mixing magnesium and cobalt colorants. I mixed 25% elmers, with 75% water. You have to dry sieve first, then add. Elmers and sieves do not mix very well.</p>

<p>hi Tom</p>
<p></p>
<p>Thanks for the suggestions I think I will try both approaches. You have any idea what percent Elmers I should add?</p>

<p>hi Lawrence:</p>
<p>Crystalline glaze is notorious for being more flaky than granny's' biscuits. Two different methods: a 50/50 blend of EPK and Bentonite: up to 5% recipe weight addition.</p>
<p>More radical: white elmers glue is blended as part of the liquid in small amounts. The glue is organic (latex primarily) and burns off in a glaze fire.</p>
