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\u003eA bright white powder. In a glaze it gives soft, semi-opaque whites and creams, and it can grow tiny crystals as the glaze cools, giving a variegated, satin look. It's the pure form of the titanium found in rutile, without rutile's iron.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eGetting started\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor a soft white or semi-opaque look, start at about 5% (5 grams per 100 grams of dry glaze).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAround 8 to 10%, glazes tend to go satin or matte.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWith iron it gives creams and warm yellows.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor a bright, solid white, tin oxide or a zircon opacifier like Ultrox works better.
