Thanks Kathy. I am quite sure it is the same clear. I got it from this site and somehow it either was renamed 'Perfect Clear' and it that as it is just that.... Perfect! Love you work Kathy.

I have a best clear that may well be the same glaze. I love this bird bath Jan, I made something similar a few years ago but didn't get it past the dry state and haven't re-tried it yet as there are too many interesting things to do with clay! I really like yours.

Hi George. Yes, is it the clear glaze recipe you gave me. I did not realise it but I already had the recipe written in my book, but known as 'Perfect Clear'. I kept the name as it certainly is a "Perfect Clear". I love it. It also performs very well for 'single firing'. This flower was single fired with good results.

Is this the clear I posted for you? I don't remember calling it "Perfect" though that may have been included in the description of the person who posted it on the Website where I found it.
