4 Reasons why AMACO DL is worth investing in for your pottery business

1. Excellent Value

From 1 bag, when mixed with 1 gallon of distilled water, you get 4.73 liters of usable glaze. Compared to buying individual jars, this is incredibly cost-effective. Plus, it provides enough volume for convenient dipping of plates, bowls, or tall mugs in a dipping tank, significantly reducing the wholesale ceramic glaze cost per piece.

2. Reduce labor costs and increase production capacity

The traditional brush application process is not only time-consuming but also prone to human error. This dipping technique, however, makes the job easier, allows for instant coating, increases daily production by dozens of times, helps reduce labor budget, and speeds up firing cycles.

3. Special formula guaranteed not to harden or settle

A major problem with standard powder glazes is that when mixed with water, the minerals settle and form hard clumps at the bottom of the bucket, wasting material. However, AMACO DL contains special suspending agents that make it easy to mix and reuse, reducing material waste in production.

4. Batch Code Tracker system for 100% QC control

Every bag of AMACO DL comes with a label and a Batch Code Tracker, allowing studios to record, verify, and maintain the Specific Gravity precisely for every production cycle, ensuring consistent results across all pieces.

AMACO Dipping & Layering helps reduce material costs, drastically cuts down on glazing time and labor, solves the issue of hard settling, and ensures precise QC for every production batch. Make the switch to AMACO DL and we guarantee it's well worth it.
