Walkers Ceramics Underglazes

Underglazes are decorative colours applied to ware before the application of glaze, or they can be put over glaze (prior to firing), they can also be considered as a “paint for clay”.

 

When you visit us in store, you will see sample tiles of the colours within each range. 

CESCO UNDERGLAZE RANGE

Cesco Underglazes are concentrated underglaze stains in a beautiful flowing brushing medium.  They are fully ball milled, lead free and non toxic. They all have a high percentage of stain, giving strong reliable colours when fired at either earthenware or stoneware. There are 32 colours with a silky smooth application which are bottled ready to use OR they can be extended with FK110 Colour Extender or water and will still retain good colour intensity. Adding FK100 Flux Extender turns them into beautiful colours suitable for majolica decoration.  They can be intermixed within the range and also with Wunder Colours and Design Colours

DESIGN UNDERGLAZE RANGE

Design Colours are ball milled, lead free and non toxic. With Design Colours you can decorate with confidence as all colours reflect the final fired colour except for FK21 Cobalt Sea, which appears mauve in the bottle but actually fires to a deep, vibrant blue.  This means you can use your creativity and decorate your work trusting your eye.  The technical expertise of our ceramic engineers and laboratory staff has enabled us to provide the ceramic industry with Australian made, lead free, liquid colour concentrates of the highest standard.  This range has numerous decorative applications that can give effects from opaque to translucent.
