Duncan's White Gold Luster is an overglaze containing actual gold. It is typically applied to accent or highlight ceramic wares or jewelry, and it adds a metallic, mirror-like finish to the work. Precious metal lusters are considered overglazes because they are typically applied to glaze-fired pottery, on top of the glaze. The piece is then fired again at a low temperature (see details below).

White gold luster produces a polished silver look when used on top of a white glaze. Luster colors will vary depending on the glaze underneath them. As always, we recommend conducting tests prior to use on your work.

How to use:
1. Be sure that the surface of your piece is free of dust, skin oils and lotions to ensure proper adhesion. Wipe surfaces with rubbing alcohol prior to applying the overglaze (except when used over crackle glazes).

2. Always apply with a brush that is designated solely for use with the Gold to prevent contamination.

3. Do not stir or shake the luster overglaze.

4. Place a small amount of luster on a glazed palette. Apply one smooth coat. Do not let the Gold pool in an area; brush it out smoothly and evenly.

5. Overglazed ware can be fired while it is still wet. The kiln must be clean, well-ventilated (do not overload) and follow a normal firing schedule. Do not touch wet decoration and handle as little as possible until ware is fired to avoid smudging.

6. Fire the luster to cone 019 or 018.

This product is not intended for use by children and should always be handled with caution and in a well-ventilated area. Precious metal lusters should not be used on surfaces that will come in contact with food or drink..
