Speedball Glazes Editorial Review

The Speedball Underglaze in the black shade is a highly pigmented and opaque color that is ideal for a variety of applications. It comes in a 16-ounce jar, making it an excellent value for money. The underglaze is compatible with different types of clays and can be used on leather hard greenware. The underglaze is easy to use, and the color remains Consistent after firing. The lighter shade is the color when fired onto bisque before being glazed, and the brighter darker shade is after a clear glaze is applied and fired again, as indicated in the product photo. While the underglaze is safe on both clay bodies, it is essential to use a clear glaze that matches the clay body to avoid pitting or missing glaze, crazing, or lack-luster performance. However, some customers have raised concerns about the product's Consistency, with reports of unmixable chunks and thickness. Other complaints include bottles arriving open, damaged, or stained, the finish coming out matte and chips quickly, making it a less favorable option.
