You can paint our glow in the dark glaze onto greenware, bisqueware or already-glazed finished work (to fire as a specialty 3rd firing). This glaze should be fired to a fast cone 06. Any hotter and the glaze may lose its glow. Refiring this glaze may diminish its glow and is not recommended. Contents may settle at the bottom of the jar. Give the jar a stir with every dip of your brush to keep the glow evenly applied to your piece.

Our glow glaze is nontoxic but has not been tested for food safety. We don't recommend painting this glaze on surfaces that will have food on them.
Pushing the limits: Even though we don't recommend firing the glow glaze more than once, we have seen successful results of luster and mother of pearl firing after a glow firing.
You can use our glow glaze in combination with a sodium silicate crackle surface.

After you fire your ceramic, expose it to UV light, daylight, ultraviolet light, etc. The fired glaze stores the light energy and then slowly releases over time.
