 E-Z Strokes
WATERCOLORS
FOR CLAY
ARTISTS
E-Z Strokes are nontoxic, one-stroke
underglazes normally applied to greenware. These clear,
pure pigment based colors create very precise detail work.
They have a definite see-through quality, even when one color is
applied over another. EZ's may be brushed, air
brushed, spattered, sponged, stenciled, stippled, antiqued ore
used in majolica techniques. E-Z Strokes can be fired from
shelf cone 06 to cone 10.
Some colors may become lighter at
higher temperatures.
E Z Strokes are packaged in 1 oz or Pint squeeze bottles.
Quantity discounts are available for schools
& business.

Tips & Techniques
1. E-Z Strokes may be applied over most
underglazes, including Cover-Coat® and other E-Z
Stroke colors, allowing the base color to show
through.
2. E-Z Strokes work well with high fire, cone
5-6 and some to cone 10. As high results vary,
we recommend firing a test piece.
3. For majolica, apply E-Z Stroke design work
over unfired White Satin glaze.
4. As a pure pigment-based paint, E-Z Strokes is
the simplest form of fired color. You can use
E-Z Strokes just like watercolors, in layers of
transparent/translucent, bold, pure color. And,
just like watercolors, you can inter-mix all the
E-Z Strokes colors. Just as for typical
watercolors, these paints must be mixed with
water to be applied properly to greenware or
soft fired bisque for the best application. E-Z
Strokes are very fragile unfired, because when
the water dries out of the pigment there are no
binders holding it in place. E-Z Strokes fires
into the ware at an 04 or hotter cone, although
most of the pigments will hold true up to a cone
10. This broad firing range allows artists to
use E-Z Strokes on almost all clay bodies
5. E-Z Strokes are perfect for airbrushing.
6. Use E-Z Strokes to tint clay slip, most
glazes, fired Snow and other E-Z Stroke colors.
7. High definition and detail can be achieved by
adding water to E-Z Stroke color and using a
very fine brush
