MG420 Electric Shino is a midfire brush-on glaze that brings shino character into an electric kiln - the warm, broken, variegated surface traditionally associated with gas and wood firing, formulated to develop reliably in an electric firing at Cone 6.
Opaque with a gloss finish, it breaks over rims, edges and texture and pools deeper in recesses, so it rewards form: throw a piece with a defined shoulder or carved detail and the glaze will show it. Fires 1190°C–1220°C (midfire). The sample shown is brushed on Cone 6 White clay (C6W) and fired to 1200°C — it will read differently over a speckled or dark body, so test on the clay you actually use.
Please test all products to ensure suitability for your requirements as glaze application, clay type, firing atmosphere and glaze flow can vary greatly.
