88. How to Make Oxide Wash for Pottery Glazing 

This was a wonderful video. I have a ton of oxides, clay colorants and mason stains. You have inspired me to play more with them.

In your video 79--Using Oxides...You added a zinc wash--what is the recipe for the zinc wash? or was it just zinc oxide and water?--Your pottery is beautiful! thank you!

Hi, I’m excited to try using oxide washes. What do you add as a flux? I couldn’t catch the word. Also can I use ball clay instead of china clay as the additive? J

I am actually interested in making a manganese wash so I can put a black line at the top of my porcelain cups. But I cannot find any recipes for making a managanese wash. Is it same process with the EPK, etc.,.?

Very helpful, great video! I actually like the shorter videos (I have adhd so my attention span struggles more than most). Really informative, I appreciate your videos, thank you!

I’ve been trying to find info on how to mix an oxide wash having just purchased a bunch. Hard to find! This video was So Very helpful and wonderful! Thank you! I also appreciate the storage tip you gave. I have two questions. 1) Is it necessary to use a face mask when working with the oxide powders? I thought it was but you’re not wearing one. 2) in f I just use water and oxide with no gersly or epk when you say it might not bind to tbe ckay body, does that mean it’ll just crackle and fall into the kiln shelf? I’m using a community kiln and don’t want to damage anything. Thank you again!

Is it possible to use something else instead of epk for the same effect as epk is. not available at my place. Thank u

Wow, I really enjoyed this video. Thank you so much for sharing :)

Hello from France ! Thank's you for all this videos, They are exactly the good contain of techcnics explain and visual demonstration for me at my level of potery ! Your english is very understanding for me, I like your humanity, your humour, your artistics choices. I use a lot of yours tricks and tips, and I like when you strart whith your ''Welcome'' so antousiast and It's always a very good moment of learning ! Bravo !

Thank you for this informative video! I’m trying to figure out a better way to apply cobalt carbonate over a glaze. It’s so watery and drips easily or causes the glaze to rub off as I’m applying it with a brush. I’ve seen some people painting the cobalt oxide on with a brush and it looks less watery. Maybe they add something else to the cobalt wash? If I want the oxide not to run I shouldn’t put the flux in, right? Also what is the difference in results when using cobalt carbonate verses cobalt oxide?

Can I use a feldspar as the flux instead of gerstley borate? I don’t currently have any. Previously I’ve mixed my washes just oxide and water. Also, I used copper carbonate without a glaze over top expecting a black wash and got green. Should I use copper oxide instead for black?

I was just wondering what you are using EPK and what?

Thank you so much for sharing, I too have a lot of oxides and you have inspired me to be more creative with my decoration on my pots.

Thank you for this. Very useful.

Very informative, thank you. Be well

I'm trying to make cuerda seca for outline of my tile art already I have manganese dioxide and clear glaze can I mixing together? Or I can use your recipe?

Thank you for the good explaination.

Another really helpful video, you have clarified several things about which I was confused. Thank you very much, Mikkel. Carolann

Can stains/ oxides be used in low fires? The studio I study at fires to come 06

Thanks I find your information very helpful.

Thanks v much. As a beginner I end to see an outcome. Will search your list.

Du får super flotte resultater og det ser spændende ud - jeg får dog ikke helt fat i hvad de to hvode pulvere i plastikkasserne, dem der bruges 1/2 spsk fuld af er. Håber du vil fortælle, hvad det er.

Hi, Can we also use china clay or Kentucky ball clay instead of the EPK? Thanks a lot for sharing!

i am making a sculpture of my dog, a black and silver miniature schnauzer and I'm struggling on how to glaze it. Do you think something like this would be appropriate? I like how matte, textured and coloured animal sculptures look, but am unsure of how people create something like this! Looking forward to your video, I have found them very helpful and interesting.

Thank you! This was a great video and very informative.
