Allow the first layer to set slightly (loses its glossiness) before adding the next. Alternate directions of coats (apply one layer vertically and the next layer horizontally). 1-2 coats of each color are recommended, but additional coats will produce a more pronounced puffed pattern.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse with Underglazes and Engobes: Moon Rocks remains dimensional when applied over Underglazes and Stoneware Engobes, preserving its raised texture. For best results, it is recommended to bisque fire the Underglaze or Engobe to cone 04 before applying the Melt Gloop, as this helps with adhesion and ensures the glaze performs effectively during the final firing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLayer with Stoneware Glazes: When used either under or over a glaze, such as Stoneware glazes, the texture may flatten during firing. Despite this change, the technique can still produce interesting and colorful effects.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFiring Range: Moon Rocks have a broad firing range from cone 5 to cone 10 (2167°F-2345°F \/1186°C-1285°C) in both oxidation and reduction firings. Firing at higher temperatures may result in the glaze texture to increase and colors to darken. Because results can vary based on firing conditions and layering techniques, it’s recommended to test the glaze beforehand.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDinnerware: Moon Rocks are not suitable for dinnerware due to surface texture. However, it can be used on the outside of functional ware, below the lip line.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Mayco","offers":[{"title":"Pint","offer_id":49422613283060,"sku":"SW465P","price":13.23,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0588\/0430\/6120\/files\/SW465BlackMoonRocks.jpg?v=1789665731","url":"https:\/\/chesapeakeceramics.com\/products\/sw465p-black-moon-rocks","provider":"Chesapeake Ceramics ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
