Color, strength, particle size and chemistry can change from one bag to the next and from one supplier to another, even when the name on the bag stays the same. Before you use this material in a glaze, slip or clay body of any size, mix a small test batch, fire it on your own clay in your own kiln, and check the results.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat it is\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRutile is a natural mineral: titanium dioxide with some iron. Ground to a powder, it's famous for streaky, variegated \"rutile\" glazes. This granular grade is coarse, so instead of blending in, the grains leave small dark speckles and bursts of color.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eGetting started\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStart at 0.5 to 1% (half a gram to 1 gram per 100 grams of dry glaze) and test.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStir it in after you sieve the glaze, or the sieve will catch the grains.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA small amount in a clay body gives a speckled stoneware look.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWant the smooth, streaky rutile look instead? That comes from powdered rutile, not granular.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFor glaze formulators\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNatural rutile, mostly TiO₂ with iron. Because it's mined, its iron and titanium content varies from lot to lot.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe grains partly melt and bleed color around each speck; hotter firings and more fluid glazes bleed more.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSafety\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow toxicity, but don't breathe the dust.
