<strong>COLOR</strong> <strong>GUIDE</strong>


Duncan<br />

nterprises<br />

E<br />

welcomes you to its latest splash of<br />

color! As we continue to strive to provide<br />

our ceramic artists the best in innovative new products, I’m pleased to announce<br />

that this latest Color Guide includes over 50 new colors displayed on inspirational<br />

pieces from artists around the world. You can refer to the inside back cover of<br />

this guide to learn more about many of our contributing artists.<br />

Duncan ceramic products and educational programs are the most used and<br />

trusted since our original founder, my grandmother Erma Duncan, discovered the<br />

ceramic arts in 1946. She would be pleased with the continued efforts we make<br />

to provide you, the artist and craftsperson, with the best color palettes available.<br />

Making color selection easy begins with having a full range of color available<br />

and ends with having the color placed in a fashion that facilitates easy choices.<br />

You will notice we have reorganized many of our popular color lines to make it<br />

easier for you to select color.<br />

Each of our color palettes was evaluated for its ability to meet basic and<br />

advanced color needs. What you will find with the Duncan balanced palettes are<br />

complete color lines, with little or no duplication. We kept the most popular<br />

colors, added basic colors where needed and spiced up the lines with colors that<br />

you’ve been asking for. Look for our exciting new additions to the E-Z Stroke,<br />

Cover-Coat, Envision, Ultra Metallic, Opaque Acrylics, Translucent Stains and<br />

Antiquing Gel lines.<br />

Duncan University continues to grow, thanks to over 200 International<br />

Duncan University Ambassadors teaching thousands of students who continue to<br />

enroll in courses every day! We have over 50 Duncan University courses to choose<br />

from. Courses designed by talented artists around the world are added every<br />

season! Visit our website at www.duncanceramics.com and contact your nearest<br />

Duncan University Ambassador to learn more about the art of ceramics.<br />

We at Duncan are committed to making it easy for our customers to<br />

experience creativity and the excitement of personal accomplishment. And that<br />

commitment continues as we explore new avenues of creativity to share with you.<br />

We hope you enjoy this Color Guide and find it useful as a tool for your<br />

artistic accomplishments!<br />

2 DUNCAN <strong>COLOR</strong> <strong>GUIDE</strong><br />

Health and Safety<br />

Duncan Enterprises shares your concerns about health and safety,<br />

which is why we have pursued the development of dinnerware-safe<br />

and nontoxic glazes for more than 50 years and why we are<br />

committed to maintaining the highest level of safety standards.<br />

This all-inclusive color guide includes current information on every product in the Duncan fired,<br />

acrylic and accessory product lines. As you select products from this guide, please note that all<br />

nontoxic fired products have been placed in the front of the guide. Fired products that contain<br />

cautionary warnings and that are recommended for use by professionals only are placed in the<br />

center of the guide.<br />

To further assist you in selecting the right products for your needs, each product listed is<br />

accompanied by either the Nontoxic seal or Caution seal (shown at right). Please take the proper<br />

precautions when using products with the Caution seal.<br />

The Duncan ASTM D-4236 CAUTION seal found on corresponding<br />

Duncan product labels is similar to ACMI CL standards. Products with<br />

this seal are certified to be properly labeled with information on safe and<br />

proper handling and use. These products have also undergone a<br />

toxicological evaluation by a medical expert, and labels disclose any<br />

known health risks associated with improper handling of the products.<br />

The Duncan ASTM D-4236 NONTOXIC seal is similar to ACMI AP<br />

standards. This seal is your assurance that Duncan nontoxic products<br />

contain no materials in sufficient quantity to be toxic or injurious to<br />

humans, or to cause acute or chronic health problems.<br />

Due to changing FDA and Consumer Product Safety Commission<br />

regulations, ALWAYS refer to the product label for safety information.<br />

E-Z Stroke Translucent Underglazes have<br />

become popular for their versatility. The intense<br />

pigment in E-Z Strokes colors allows you to<br />

achieve high definition and decoration in any<br />

project. And their translucent quality makes them<br />

suitable for use with a number of decorating techniques,<br />

including airbrushing, antiquing and brushwork. Similar to watercolor, a single layer of<br />

color is all you need for most design work. Additional layers may be added for shading<br />

and depth.<br />

BASIC INSTRUCTIONS<br />

1. Apply 1 coat for translucent<br />

designs.<br />

2. For rich shading and depth,<br />

apply additional coats.<br />

3. Apply to greenware, unfired<br />

glaze, soft-fired bisque or cone<br />

04 bisque.<br />

4. Fire to shelf cone 04 bisque.<br />

5. Apply Clear Glaze, stilt and<br />

fire to shelf cone 06.<br />

TIPS & TECHNIQUES<br />

• E-Z Strokes may be applied over most underglazes, including<br />

Cover-Coat ® and other E-Z Strokes colors. Their transparency<br />

allows base color to show through.<br />

• E-Z Strokes work well with low- and high-fire, up to a cone 5-6 and<br />

some to cone 10.<br />

• As high-fire results vary, we recommend firing a test piece.<br />

• For majolica, apply E-Z Strokes design work over unfired White<br />

Satin Glaze.<br />

• Pure and pigment-based E-Z Strokes can be used just like<br />

watercolors, alone or intermixed in layers of translucent, bold, pure<br />

color.<br />

• E-Z Strokes are fragile when unfired. When the water dries out of<br />

the pigment, there are no binders holding it in place until it is fired.<br />

• Use E-Z Strokes to tint clay slip, most glazes, fired snow and other<br />

E-Z Strokes colors.<br />

• High definition and detail can be achieved by adding water to E-Z<br />

Strokes color and using a very fine brush.<br />

Note: E-Z Strokes are food safe when properly covered with a<br />

Duncan lead-free clear glaze.<br />

TIPS & TECHNIQUES<br />

• Painting with Cover-Coat<br />

Opaque underglaze is similar to<br />

painting with acrylic paints and is<br />

a great fired alternative for a tole and<br />

decorative painter. Colors are opaque and<br />

generally one color covers the one beneath it.<br />

• Cover-Coat without clear glaze over them, fire to<br />

an opaque, porous, velvet with matte finish.<br />

• Nontoxic clear glazes seal Cover-Coat porous<br />

surface, making utility pieces food safe, and allows<br />

the true underglaze colors to show through.<br />

• Cover-Coat airbrushes beautifully.<br />

• All colors can be mixed, blended, and thinned<br />

with water and floated.<br />

• Cover-Coat may be tinted with E-Z Strokes<br />

Translucent Underglazes or other Cover-Coat<br />

colors to create unique custom colors.<br />

• Cover-Coat dries quickly and can easily be<br />

painted over without lifting the colors underneath.<br />

• To sgraffito, gently scratch through the applied<br />

color using the TL 407 sgraffito-duster to reveal<br />

the color or the clay body beneath it.<br />

TIPS & TECHNIQUES<br />

• Crackletone Clear Glaze can be successfully used over<br />

most underglazes.<br />

• Once Crackletone Clear Glaze is fired, wipe piece with<br />

India ink, thinned Translucent Stains or acrylic paint.<br />

• Wipe back with soft cloth to enhance crackle pattern.<br />

• For decorative vessels, we recommend using transparent<br />

Envision <strong>Glazes</strong> for the inside.<br />

• Crackletone Clear Glaze is not waterproof and should not<br />

be applied to food containers. Crackletone Clear Glaze is<br />

often used on decorative pieces such as lamp bases,<br />

bookends, figurines and vases for dried and silk flowers.<br />

TIPS & TECHNIQUES<br />

• Use clean hands or dipping tongs (available at ceramics<br />

supply shops) to hold the ware.<br />

• Dip with 1 single smooth motion, in and out of the glaze,<br />

using wrist action to turn the ware in the glaze.<br />

• Keep ware from touching the sides or bottom of dipping<br />

container, as the glaze coating may be wiped away from<br />

contact areas.<br />

• As you remove the ware from dipping container, shake any<br />

drips from the ware.<br />

• Before placing the dipped ware on a rack or cart,<br />

finger-smooth any drips or runs.<br />

Note: Most clear dipping glazes are food safe.<br />

Due to its cracked surface, CR 800D is not food<br />

safe.<br />

dry thoroughly before<br />

applying color. While the<br />

color is still slightly<br />

damp, lift the corner of<br />

the masked areas with a<br />

tool or your fingernail,<br />

and use your fingertips<br />

to gently roll the mask<br />

toward the area.<br />

TIPS & TECHNIQUES<br />

is still slightly damp.<br />

• Glaze design: Paint a design with Mask 'n Peel<br />

directly on bisque or over 3 coats of dry, unfired<br />

glaze applied to shelf cone 04 bisque. When<br />

mask is dry, apply 1 coat of a second glaze<br />

color, then remove mask while glaze is still<br />

slightly damp.<br />

• SY 555 Write & Peel is great for creating lines<br />

and dots.<br />

2. Dip with one single, smooth motion, in and out of the glaze, using<br />

wrist action to turn the ware in the glaze.<br />

3. Keep ware from touching the sides or bottom of dipping container,<br />

as the glaze coating may be wiped away from contact areas.<br />

4. As you remove the ware from the dipping container, shake any<br />

drips from the ware.<br />

5. Before placing the dipped ware on a rack or cart, smooth any drips<br />

or runs.<br />

Art <strong>Glazes</strong> are formulated to give any piece a touch of elegance. Colors<br />

range from solid to translucent, and each contains tiny flecks of accent<br />

color. Finishes range from satin to glossy. The shape of the ware and the<br />

thickness of application will influence the final appearance, and no two<br />

firings are likely to produce exactly the same result!<br />

BASIC INSTRUCTIONS<br />

1. Make sure that the surface of your piece is free of dust, skin oils and lotions to<br />

ensure proper adhesion. Wipe surfaces with rubbing alcohol prior to applying the<br />

overglaze (except when used over Crackle <strong>Glazes</strong>).<br />

2. Apply with a brush that is designated solely for use with the particular overglaze<br />

used.<br />

3. Place a small amount of overglaze on a glazed palette. Apply 1 smooth coat.<br />

Do not let gold pool in an area; brush it out smoothly.<br />

4. Correct application should produce a red, green or caramel rich color when<br />

unfired, depending on overglaze used.<br />

5. Stilt and fire gold overglaze to shelf cone 019-018.<br />

6. Clean brush in Essence and let dry.<br />

7. Overglazed ware can be fired while it is still wet. The kiln must be clean, well<br />

ventilated (do not overload) and follow a normal firing schedule. Do not touch wet<br />

decoration and handle as little as possible until ware is fired to avoid smudging.<br />

Luster—Mother-of-Pearl<br />

A translucent overglaze with a lustrous iridescence.<br />

BASIC INSTRUCTIONS<br />

Before beginning, follow steps 1 and 2<br />

under Basic Instructions for Precious<br />

Metals.<br />

1. Place a small amount of overglaze on<br />

a glazed palette.<br />

2. For a swirled look, swirl on 1 coat,<br />

overlapping strokes. For a smooth look,<br />

brush on all strokes in the same direction.<br />

Correct application should produce a light<br />

blue tint. Clean brush in Essence and let<br />

dry.<br />

3. Follow step 7 under Basic Instructions<br />

for Precious Metals. Stilt and fire Motherof-Pearl<br />

to shelf cone 020.<br />

Overglaze Accessory—Essence<br />

TIPS & TECHNIQUES<br />

• The appearance of Mother-of-<br />

Pearl will vary with the type of<br />

glaze over which it is applied.<br />

OG 803<br />

When applied over a gloss glaze, Mother-of-Pearl<br />

Mother-of-Pearl will add a shiny<br />

luster. When applied over a matte<br />

glaze, Mother-of-Pearl will add a dull luster.<br />

• If Mother-of-Pearl is accidentally applied on the wrong<br />

area, dip a cotton swab in Essence and wipe off<br />

misplaced color.<br />

• If any areas are missed, go back and touch up before<br />

Mother-of-Pearl dries.<br />

• If using a metallic overglaze and Mother-of-Pearl on<br />

the same piece, apply and fire the metallic overglaze<br />

first.<br />

Used to clean brushes and tools used with overglazes. Any other cleaning agent<br />

may contain water or solvents that will cause separation of the overglaze during<br />

subsequent applications.<br />

BASIC INSTRUCTIONS<br />

1. Swish overglaze<br />

brush in solvent until<br />

bristles are free of<br />

product. Wipe on paper<br />

towel.<br />

DM-2237<br />

TIPS & TECHNIQUES<br />

• Use a separate bottle of Essence for each overglaze product.<br />

• Mark the bottles according to which overglaze product was<br />

used. Contamination can result if brushes and/or Essence used<br />

with one product come in contact with brushes and/or Essence<br />

used with another.<br />

TIPS & TECHNIQUES<br />

• The appearance of the gold will vary<br />

with the type of glaze over which it is<br />

applied.<br />

• When applied over a gloss glaze, the<br />

gold will be shiny. When applied over a<br />

matte glaze, the gold will be dull.<br />

• If gold is accidentally applied on the<br />

wrong area, dip a cotton swab in<br />

Essence and wipe off misplaced color.<br />

• If any areas are missed, go back and<br />

touch up before gold overglaze dries.<br />

• If using a metallic overglaze and<br />

Mother-of-Pearl on the same piece,<br />

apply and fire the metallic overglaze<br />

first.<br />

• Cake decorator technique: Use palette knife to fill pastry tube with No-Fire<br />

Snow or Glittering No-Fire Snow. Select tips with large design openings, as<br />

snow products may clog smaller openings. Use slow, steady pressure to<br />

squeeze design onto surface to be decorated. Clean design tips thoroughly<br />

and dispose of the pastry tube. As an alternative to a pastry tube, you can<br />

also use a plastic sandwich bag.<br />

• Brush design techniques: Load a round synthetic bristle brush heavily<br />

with No-Fire Snow or Glittering No-Fire Snow, allowing a small amount of<br />

the product to remain on the tip of the brush bristles. To create raised<br />

flower petals and leaves, place tip of brush at end of flower petal or base of<br />

leaf. Press down on the brush, slightly rolling the bristles as stroke is pulled<br />

out. Allow to dry for 24-48 hours, then paint design with acrylic colors.<br />

• Palette knife technique: Nonfired Snows can be applied with a palette<br />

knife to create landscapes and designs. Experiment with pressing, pulling<br />

and twisting motions with the palette knife for a variety of raised effects.<br />

Allow to dry for 24-48 hours, then paint design with acrylic colors.<br />

• Holiday Decorations: Nonfired Snows can be added to completed<br />

projects, including ceramic bisque, wood, plaster, glass tree ornaments,<br />

grapevine wreaths, greeting cards and more. Nonfired Snows are not<br />

recommended for decorating holiday windows, as they are permanent<br />

when dry.<br />

• Snows can be tinted with OS Opaque Acrylics to create custom colors.<br />

TIPS & TECHNIQUES<br />

• Antiquing: After Step 2 is dry, use Water-Based Antiquing<br />

Gels to antique crackled areas.<br />

• Marbling: When mixing acrylic color with Step 1, mix<br />

2 or more colors separately and paint or sponge on<br />

a marbled design. Let dry and apply Step 2 over<br />

marbled design; let dry and cracks will appear.<br />

NEW NEW NEW<br />

• Cracking follows the direction in which the topcoat<br />

color was applied. If color was swirled on, the<br />

cracks swirl. Straight strokes will give your project<br />

straight cracks.<br />

• Over brushing can reduce amount of cracking.<br />

Apply acrylic quickly with 1 smooth, even coat.<br />

• Achieve large, bold cracks by applying a heavier<br />

topcoat color.<br />

• Achieve fine cracks by applying a thin topcoat color.<br />

• Achieve a fine, web cracking by sponging on topcoat<br />

color.<br />

• Flat Opaque brushes give the best results when<br />

applying Quik-Crackle.<br />

• When cracking has completed and the topcoat<br />

is completely dry, seal with spray sealer and<br />

add brushstrokes or design work.<br />

Thin ’n Shade (AS 957) is a water-based medium for use with any water-based<br />

ceramic color, fired or nonfired product. It extends drying time of colors so they<br />

remain workable longer. It is also a purer thinning agent in areas where water<br />

systems contain contaminants that may affect ceramic color results.<br />
