For tips on using BOTZ Pro:  To achieve a flawless, professional-level pottery clay look, it's not just about color selection, but also about paying attention to glazing techniques. BOTZ Pro offers a simple method that delivers amazing results, as follows:

Prepare the surface >> Before applying, always use a damp sponge to wipe any dust off the biscuit piece to reduce the risk of pinholes after firing.

To unite people as one . Before each use, stir the coating thoroughly until the emulsifier and pigments are well mixed to ensure consistent color shades.

Apply in alternating directions to reduce brush marks >> We recommend applying 2-3 coats. The first coat should be applied vertically. When it starts to dry slightly, apply the second coat horizontally. This technique will help reduce brush marks and create a smoother finish on the surface.

Control the effect with temperature >> For a stable and smooth color, fire at 1050°C. For a natural-looking melting and flowing effect, apply a slightly thicker glaze to the edges of the piece and fire at 1250°C.

Whether you're an amateur potter or run a professional studio, BOTZ Pro is the essential tool to easily elevate your ceramic work to a "pro" look—all in one convenient jar.
