Hobby ceramic colours which you may have used
from other companies are virtually always creamy and ready to use direct
from the pot. Colorobbias Bisquestrokes are different!
Because they come directly from the Italian pottery
industry, they were designed for use by craftmen decorating in the stunningly
brilliant Italian styles and are concentrated, and may be used for many different
techniques.
It is very easy to adjust the consistency with water
to suit the method you are using, (and has the added benefit that often a
pot of colour will go a very long, long way!)
Italian majolica shows these colours at their most
vibrant and versatile best, applying slightly diluted colour in brushstroke
designs over 3 coats of unfired 0147 Arctic White glaze, then firing to cone
05.
May also be used directly onto bisque as translucent
brushwork designs, airbrushing, antiqueing, or other applications, then glazing
and firing. We do not recommend use on greenware, for which you should choose
the versatile Engobes.
