SP 1516 – Aurora

Recommended Firing Range

1200–1250°C

Packaging

Available as a liquid glaze in 175 g, 500 g, and 1000 g containers.

Product Features

• At 1200°C, the glaze produces an ice-blue tone with white surface vibrations, resulting in a semi-matte finish.
• In thin applications, the vibrational surface structure becomes less pronounced, revealing subtle transitions of green, blue, and light blue tones in affected areas.
• As application thickness increases, white vibrational patterns and color transitions intensify, creating a richer and more saturated surface appearance.
• At 1250°C, the speckled structure becomes larger and more defined. The glaze develops a glossier finish, with clearer and more pronounced patterning.
• Surface finish: semi-matte at 1200°C, glossy at 1250°C.
• Opaque glaze.
• No running within the recommended firing range.
• Acid resistant and free from toxic substances.

Application Methods

• Suitable for brush application, with a recommended thickness of 2–3 coats.
• For spraying or dipping, dilute with approximately 5–30% water to adjust consistency.
• Recommended specific gravity: 45–55° Bé.

Testing Recommendations

• We recommend first-time users test the glaze under their own kiln schedules and application methods before production use.
• Preparing both vertical and horizontal test tiles will help evaluate surface behavior and effects.
• The sample shown was applied over BNC 1200 White Porcelain Clay.
• When combining artistic glazes with other glaze systems, testing is strongly recommended to avoid unexpected results.

Care & Cleaning

• Dishwasher exposure may subject the glaze to high-temperature chemical detergents. Over time, this may alter the matte or artistic surface characteristics.

Safety

• Use appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) during application.
• Keep away from open flames and ignition sources during use.
• Children should only apply under adult supervision.

Storage

• Store in a tightly sealed container away from direct sunlight and moisture.
• If the glaze thickens over time, add a small amount of water, mix thoroughly, and strain before use.
• After opening, application additives such as flow modifiers and stabilizers may gradually lose effectiveness. While this generally does not affect firing results, it may reduce application performance or cause pre-firing cracking. In such cases, please contact us for support.
