It was the best glazes that I ever got (with stupid ease) and I have been disappointed with glazes ever since. We bisqued fired and then added the glaze to were you wanted and then we had an old Kiln (shell) with maybe a hole and fed it propane with a blow torch type set up (maybe a mixing with O2). The pieces just got red hot. I mean this stone clay glowed red in the kiln and with leather gloves and tongs pulled out the hot pieces and threw into a dig pit with different things. Leaves, paper, sawdust, and motor oil. Covered with trash can lid. I remembered you even drop into cool water like a blacksmith does with steel with I would have figured would shocked it to pieces.
