Small tips from Pottery Clay

If you are just starting to use BOTZ Unidekor, it is recommended to always make a color test tile. Even though the colors are quite stable, the final results may vary depending on the type of clay, glaze formula, paint thickness, and firing program. Therefore, testing before actual use will help reduce errors and provide a better understanding of the color's behavior.
