Glaze thickness can affect the size of the crackle, smaller and tighter when thin, larger, and hexagonal when thick. With this glaze thicker is better.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eRecommended Clays: \u003c\/b\u003eBrown or buff clays that do not contain manganese work best with these glazes. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eApplication Tips: \u003c\/b\u003eApply Kiln Ice glazes thicker than traditional Amaco glazes, at least an 1\/8 inch thick (3.175mm). Glaze thickness is critical to achieve a nice crackle. Multiple brushed on layers is better than one thick one. When the glaze thickness starts to get heavy it will take longer to dry in between coats, this is due to the gums that are added to make it brushable also slows the dry time when glaze is thick.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eFood Safe? \u003c\/b\u003eYes, but due to durability, these glazes are not recommended for food surfaces. Use a liner glaze for any food surfaces on functional wares.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv style=\"text-align: start;\" id=\"layering-celadons-under-potter-s-choice-glazes-280-content\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","published_at":"2025-03-13T13:24:14","created_at":"2025-03-13T13:24:21","vendor":"AMACO","type":"AMACO Cone 5\/6 KI Kiln Ice","tags":["discount20","Glaze Line_AMACO (KI) Kiln Ice"],"price":2000,"price_min":2000,"price_max":2000,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":true,"all_variant_ids":[41557909307455],"variants":[{"id":41557909307455,"product_id":7732707426367,"product_handle":"amaco-ki18","title":"Pint","option1":"Pint","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"AMACO-KI18P","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":null,"image_id":null,"available":true,"name":"AMACO – Cone 5\/6 - KI18 Arctic Blush - Pint","options":["Pint"],"price":2000,"weight":762,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_quantity":1,"inventory_management":null,"inventory_policy":"deny","inventory_in_cart":0,"inventory_remaining":1,"incoming":false,"next_incoming_date":null,"taxable":true,"barcode":null}],"available":true,"images":["\/\/kruegerpottery.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/Amaco_ki18_white_clay_f676687f-576e-4ecb-a871-3ce320faf3f5.png?v=1741890261","\/\/kruegerpottery.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/Amaco_ki18_dark_clay_f8b9860d-6afb-4e9f-a79e-406d054be80c.png?v=1741890261","\/\/kruegerpottery.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/AP-Logo_ce4ae79e-b366-407e-a752-2bfd911d6b8e.png?v=1741890261","\/\/kruegerpottery.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/cone-logo_a45a7f24-afa0-414b-aef6-344fd7111321.png?v=1741890261","\/\/kruegerpottery.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/foodsafe-butnotdurable-web-final_efce1ce0-0212-4a6b-bb55-ad4276e1b10e.webp?v=1741890261","\/\/kruegerpottery.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/semitransparent-icon-web_a1e791ee-f160-43a8-8faf-6fe63aa489bc.webp?v=1741890261"],"featured_image":"\/\/kruegerpottery.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/Amaco_ki18_white_clay_f676687f-576e-4ecb-a871-3ce320faf3f5.png?v=1741890261","options":["Size"],"url":"\/products\/amaco-ki18"}
