Mason 6088 Dark Red (K-5988)

from $18.61

Mason Stains are a mixture of metallic oxides that produce consistent colors when fired. They are useful for coloring glazes, slips, or clay. The color outcome depends on factors such as glaze type and composition, firing temperature, and firing atmosphere. The amount of stain required varies from 1% to 15%, depending on the desired color depth. You can also use these stains for brush decoration when mixed with a frit like Ferro 3124. Most stains maintain their color up to 1260°C (2300°F) in both oxidation and reduction firing. However, some colors, like purple, pink, and yellow, may undergo changes at high temperatures or in reduction atmospheres, so it's always a good idea to test them for stability.
