SC-016 Cotton Tail - Pale White Ceramic Underglaze & Glaze, Mayco Stroke & Coat®

SC-016 Cotton Tail is a smooth, glossy white glaze that offers excellent coverage and versatility. When applied in one thin coat, it produces a soft, translucent milky white; with two to three coats, it develops into a fully opaque, creamy white finish. This glaze fires best at Cone 06 in oxidation, retaining a rich and consistent surface without requiring a clear overglaze. It’s ideal for brushwork, layering, and majolica techniques, and can be applied directly to wet clay, leather-hard, or bisque surfaces. As with all Stroke & Coat® glazes, SC-016 is AP Certified non-toxic, lead-free, and dinnerware safe, making it perfect for both functional pottery and decorative ceramics. <SC-016 Cotton Tail holds its opacity well at Cone 6, where it may take on a subtle pinkish warmth with a milky texture. At Cone 10, it shifts to a cooler, crisper white tone—users should note this temperature-dependent color variation when firing at high heat.>

Stroke & Coat® SC-003 Wine About It is a highly pigmented, viscous gloss glaze that can be used for both detailed design and opaque coverage. It is designed to stay in place without blending when layered, making it perfect for intricate artwork. The colors are intermixable, allowing for custom shades. Artists can thin the glaze with water to achieve a watercolor or wash effect. Since the liquid color closely matches the fired result, it’s easy to visualize the final appearance, drastic changes are unlikely. Brush-able, water soluble, and non-toxic.  

Stroke & Coat® works on wet or leatherhard clay and can be fired to cone 04, maintaining vibrant color with time savings. It’s ideal for classrooms, studios, and fine art use. It can be applied to earthenware or terracotta clay and bisque. One coat results in a translucent finish, while 2-3 coats build up to full opacity. Allow drying between coats. Stroke & Coat® naturally fires to a gloss finish, but clear glazes such as NTCLR Clear One Dipping or S-2101 Crystal Clear Brushing Glaze may be added for extra gloss or evenness. It is AP Certified Non-Toxic and dinnerware safe when used properly.
