Thanks for your feedback guys.

Wendy, those brands are not ones that i'm familiar with. I'm not sure they are available here. Also, what do you mean by 06 glazes? Does that have something to do with cones?

Babalu, thank you for giving me some of your expertise. That information you have given me i will definitely make sure i'm aware of and try to avoid doing it on other mugs, but for some reason i think it has to do with the different brands.
So far i have glazed and fired 15 mugs. On all of those mugs i have poured the inside with a brush-on glaze and drained the excess out. Three mugs have used a particular brand (Clayworks) on the inside which has been the same brand used on the outside of two, and every other mug has used the brand available to me at school (Cesco) on both the inside and outside. A couple of mugs have been a combination of those two. (Beachbumz, the outside of your mug was those two brands mixed together). Of the four mugs that have cracked all used Cesco on the inside but the glaze on the outside has been a different brand all together again. I think i'm going to stick to the same brand/supplier for the moment and hope i don't have any more problems.

Beachbumz, if you have had that problem too i am certainly going to address that issue.

And Eric, thanks. I really like the Apple Green myself and have decided i'll be doing version 2.0 in that colour. I haven't decided on the inside colour yet though.
