Product Code: SP 1372 – Matte White

Recommended Firing Range

1180–1220°C

Form

Supplied as a liquid glaze in 175 g, 500 g, and 1000 g packaging.

Application Characteristics

• An opaque white glaze that develops a soft, natural matte surface after firing. Its excellent covering power provides a clean, even white finish across the applied surface.
• Matte glazes have limited flow and leveling properties during firing. Due to their relatively low melting characteristics, they have a reduced ability to conceal surface imperfections created during application. Brush marks, droplets, uneven application, or variations in glaze thickness may remain clearly visible after firing. Therefore, the smoothness of the surface prior to glazing has a direct impact on the final fired appearance.
• For optimal results, the glaze should be applied evenly and at a consistent thickness across the entire surface. Variations in thickness or application marks may become more pronounced after firing.
• Opaque finish.
• Non-flowing within the recommended firing temperature range.
• Contains no toxic substances.

Application Methods

• Suitable for brush application. The recommended application thickness is 2–3 coats.
• For spray gun or dipping applications, it is recommended to dilute the glaze with approximately 5–30% water to achieve the desired consistency.
• Recommended Baumé (Bé) range: 44–49.

Testing Recommendations

• We recommend that first-time users prepare test tiles using their own firing schedule and application techniques before production. Testing on both vertical and horizontal surfaces according to your application method will help you better understand the glaze’s behavior.
• The sample shown in the product image was applied over BNC 1200 Porcelain Casting Slip.
• When combining this glaze with artistic glazes or other glaze series, we recommend conducting tests beforehand to avoid unexpected results.

Care and Cleaning

• When washed in a dishwasher, the glaze surface may be exposed to high-temperature chemical detergents, which may result in slight changes to the matte finish or surface appearance.

Safety

• The use of appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) is recommended during application.
• Since glazes react to heat, keep them away from open flames and ignition sources during application.
• Children should use the product only under adult supervision.

Storage

• Store the product in an airtight container, protected from direct sunlight.
• If stored for an extended period, the glaze may begin to dry. In this case, add a small amount of water, mix thoroughly, and strain before use.
• After opening, the application enhancers, stabilizers, and preservatives contained in the glaze may gradually lose their effectiveness over time. This generally does not affect the fired result, but it may reduce application performance, making the glaze more difficult to apply or causing pre-firing surface cracking.
