They look good trying all 3 combos. It's really not as economically good to dip pouring glazes cost. It's what I found out for me anyway. Dipping is faster. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and work with us.
Hi Neila, I think you are right. Brush glazing can be so time consuming. I should really Dip glaze more but I just love the results of the brush glazes when I pour them on.
They were all pretty however i think the 2nd was the overall favourite, but the blue one was very close to being top mug too. thanks for sharing its always good to see how they come out when you have showed a technique so thankyou x
Hi Maria. I loved all three combos. I have all the glazes except the pearl white. Guess ill be shopping soon. I found Dante first when I got back into this amazing hobby. That was 3 or 4 years ago. Im one of his patrons. Thank for another great video. I love you kiln openings as well. Have a great day Allen
I just picked up Spectrum's sangria and kimchi, i might need to go back and pick up the pearl white. But perhaps i can use Mayco light flux instead. Test tiles are in the bisque and will try some of these combos. Thanks Marie 🥰
That's great. I love sangria and kimchi. I have used Mayco light flux instead of pearl white, and it is not the same. Amaco honey flux is closer, but pearl white does flow more. 👍
Beautiful mugs, hard to choose my favourite. I didn’t realize that some glazes are meant for double dipping. Which means not all are. Which explains my random results! Thank you for the video.
Thanks so much, Lori 😊 Yes, Lori. You are so right. It's all about getting to know your glazes and the thickness that works for you. That is why test tiles are so important. But I don't know any potter personally that likes to make them 😀
Sangria w pearl white. I'm just starting out and learning so much. Your demo is easy to understand and your voice is so soothing. Thank you and throw on~
Beautiful and inspiring, as always, Marie! Interesting idea to use water based latex resist instead of wax. Thank you again for sharing your knowledge with all of us!
Always learn something new from your videos. I'm going to have to try to get that film resist for my work. I apply my wax resist using cosmetic brushes (the ones used for applying eye shadow) and I can throw them away after the applicator comes off. Also, I have a section of brushes which I label as wax only. BTW-All of your glaze combinations are beautiful - probably more partial to the textured turquoise one. Thanks for your helpful video P.S.- Much more soothing than Dante :-)
Hi, Janet. First off, thank you so much for the suggestion. The eye makeup applicator is a great idea. I'm going to try it. I also have separate brushes for my wax resist. Unfortunately, the film resist destroyed my brush, but I still really like using it more than wax resist because if I mess up with the film resist, I don't have to refire my piece. I really love the Honey Flux and Textured Turquoise too. Thank you, Janet. 😍
I don't have anything against commercial products as the convenience is certainly worth something for saving time, but after using a lot of temp sealers like wax and such, I started doing my bulk runs by thinning 100% silicone caulk with acetone; equal parts squirted from a tube and mixed thoroughly. It requires having the acetone on hand naturally, but the gallon cans last a long time used for semi-occasional purposes. Also not super lovely on the fume end so I strap up a respirator; also something to consider. While I've never thrown the remnants in a sealed container, it might last for a few days if needed. Acetone tends to expand in pressure when it warms so a stronger container with a tight-fitting lid like empty paint cans would be advisable and one day I'll get around to trying it. I do use the silicone trick all the time though, as it's also significantly cheaper for making molds. The film resist looks interesting and worth a try. I rarely use bristle brushes for sticky applications anymore and go for either the disposable foam brushes or using the cheap rags used for doing wood stain if you don't have intimate need for accuracy beyond poking a finger tip.😉 The only downside with the foam brushes is that they tend to hold a lot of material (as a sponge does), so getting everything out that they absorb is usually a losing battle. Not too big a deal if your materials are cheap enough, but also a consideration if it's like $25+ an ounce. Now on to more channel binging!
Hi. Good question. If I apply flowing glaze in the center-trimmed part of the bottom, I always make sure it's not too thick so it doesn't melt off the mug. That's why I brushed the extra glaze off right away. In general, I always place my pottery on a cookie just in case. 😊
Hi Marie. I have a doubt if I glaze a cup today and I'm going to glaze fire a week later is it okay or should glaze application be done a day before glaze firing?
Hi Meenu. Good question. You can glaze it now. It doesn't matter. The only thing that does matter is if you put it in the kiln too soon and the glaze is not dry enough. 😊
Hi MOL. Crystal glazes are different from regular glazes. No, you can't strain Crystal Glazes. If you get anything on your pottery, like a clump of glaze or anything that would affect the glaze in the firing, you will have to carefully remove it with a scraper tool or a little sandpaper after the glaze has dried. 😊
Thanks for sharing this! Would it work to pour or dip the first layer and brush on the second glaze only partially where I want it? :) that would safe me so much time 😊
Yes you can. I have done that. (poured the top half and brushed the lower half with a coat or two. Except you don't want to brush where you poured because you will then apply too much glaze and it may drip like the rim dip. Unless it is a stable glaze which you may get pinholes. 😊 Happy glazing
Hello Mary!! Thank you for this video always good!!! Can I ask you do you have a video where you make clear glaze ? Also do I always have to clear glaze a piece even though it won’t hold water … thank you !!!
Question: When pouring or dipping, how do the glazes in the bowls when doing the second or third glaze not contaminate the other? Do you pour the glaze back in the bottle it came out of?
great question. I carefully pour the glaze back in the bottle. You can use a funnel. then I scrape the bowl with a spatula. Spray a little distilled water in the bowl swish it around with a brush and pour it in the bottle. Then start a second glaze. 😊

I liked the Sangria combination.
Thanks Bill.
I like turquoise mug the best! Looks great. Looking forward to seeing more pots with the brush on glazes poured/dipped instead 😊
Thanks Candy. I always pour or dip the brush on glazes when ever possible. It does save a lot of time 😊

Thank you so much Sylvie😊 I also love the Honey Flux. 😍

Thank you. I'm glad I can give you a few glazing ideas. The middle one is my favorite as well.
So amazing...waiting to start glazing my pots

Awesome 👍💯
Thanks 😊 you 💕 my teacher
Thank you Rahmone 😃 And you are most welcome.
Love watching you. Thank you for your advice to me on underglaze. So many products so much to remember also ❤

Thank you very much for the tips and suggestions. That's kind of what the film resist smells like. 😊
For the second mug, did you have to put it on a cookie since you put glaze on the bottom?

Hi Meenu. Good question. You can glaze it now. It doesn't matter. The only thing that does matter is if you put it in the kiln too soon and the glaze is not dry enough. 😊
Regarding straining, what about the glazes that intentionally come with crystals? Like Mayco Aurora Green.
Hi MOL. Crystal glazes are different from regular glazes. No, you can't strain Crystal Glazes. If you get anything on your pottery, like a clump of glaze or anything that would affect the glaze in the firing, you will have to carefully remove it with a scraper tool or a little sandpaper after the glaze has dried. 😊

Hello Mary!! Thank you for this video always good!!! Can I ask you do you have a video where you make clear glaze ? Also do I always have to clear glaze a piece even though it won’t hold water … thank you !!!
Hi Adri. I was actually thinking of doing that. No you don't. Then the clear glaze would be used if you want a glossy look. 😊
@@PotteryCrafters thank you Mary!!!!
Question: When pouring or dipping, how do the glazes in the bowls when doing the second or third glaze not contaminate the other? Do you pour the glaze back in the bottle it came out of?
great question. I carefully pour the glaze back in the bottle. You can use a funnel. then I scrape the bowl with a spatula. Spray a little distilled water in the bowl swish it around with a brush and pour it in the bottle. Then start a second glaze. 😊
So is one coat sufficient with the Amaco glazes when pouring? If so that would be so much better than the 3 or 4 brushed coats they call for....
Hi Wade. Yes, pouring is so much faster and equivalent to 3 coats of brushing. Plus no brush marks.
