Cone 6: Turquoise provides translucent, bluish-green gloss color. Designed to provide a hint of color with one coat, deeper color with two to three coats – but remaining translucent. Cone 10: Color fades. TIP: One coat allows more of the clay body characteristics to appear through the glaze, adding a faint color gloss to the surface. Subsequent coats deepen the turquoise color but at three coats you will still obtain a translucent fired surface. Three+ coats will produce more opacity and less translucency.
