Our engobes can be used on both leather-hard and dry clay. An engobe consists of colored clay slip. Delivered ready-mixed in a jar of 1 kg. The sample on the left of the picture is fired at earthenware temperature (1020 °C) and the sample on the right is fired at stoneware temperature (1240 °C).

Stir the engobe before use. Remember to also stir during the work to avoid sedimentation. If the engobe is brushed on, we recommend at 1-3 coats with a shorter drying time in between. Avoid the brush to dry out during use. Then glaze the item with transparent glaze. If the item is not glazed, the color becomes faint and dull. 

Engobes are not suitable for very small details, for this we recommend our underglaze colors instead.
