E-Z Strokes - WATERCOLORS FOR CLAY ARTISTS - nontoxic, -one-stroke underglazes
These clear, intense, vibrant colors create very precise detail work. They have a definite see-through quality, even when one color is applied over another.
EZ's may be brushed, air brushed, spattered, sponged, stenciled, stippled, antiqued or used in majolica techniques. They can be applied directly to greenware or bisque and layered over most underglazes, allowing the basecoat to show through. They’re safe for serving food when coated with a Duncan food-safe clear glaze.
E-Z Strokes can be fired from shelf cone 06 to cone 10.
Some colors may become lighter at higher temperatures.

Tips & Techniques 1. E-Z Stroke® Underglazes may be applied over most underglazes, including Cover-Coat® and other E-Z Stroke® colors, allowing the base color to show through. 2. E-Z Stroke® Underglazes work well with high fire, cone 5-6 and some to cone 10. As high results vary, we recommend firing a test piece. 3. For majolica, apply E-Z Stroke® design work over unfired White Satin glaze. 4. As a pure pigment-based paint, E-Z Stroke® Underglazes are the simplest form of fired color. You can use E-Z Stroke® Underglazes just like watercolors, in layers of transparent/translucent, bold, pure color. And, just like watercolors, you can inter-mix all the E-Z Stroke® colors. Just as for typical watercolors, these paints must be mixed with water to be applied properly to greenware or soft fired bisque for the best application. E-Z Stroke® Underglazes are very fragile unfired, because when the water dries out of the pigment there are no binders holding it in place. E-Z Stroke® Underglazes fires into the ware at an 04 or hotter cone, although most of the pigments will hold true up to a cone 10. This broad firing range allows artists to use E-Z Stroke® Underglazes on almost all clay bodies 5. E-Z Stroke® Underglazes are perfect for airbrushing. 6. Use E-Z Stroke® Underglazes to tint clay slip, most glazes, fired Snow and other E-Z Stroke® colors. 7. High definition and detail can be achieved by adding water to E-Z Stroke® color and using a very fine brush. |
