Purple Haze Gloop

Gloop performs best on top of underglaze. Applying a fresh coat of underglaze and then applying Gloop helps the Gloop stick to the surface and achieve the perfect droplet shapes. If you apply on top of an active, melting glaze, Gloop will lose its perfect droplet shape and melt into the other glaze.

Here are a few application techniques that are favorites of Wizard:

Use a squeeze tube to dispense drops of Gloop.

Apply Dry Gloop as a thick paste to get a crawling texture. Around 1 cm thickness is ideal.

Gloop will stick to kiln shelves!  To protect your shelves, put a layer of 60 mesh silica sand underneath ceramics while in the kiln. This will allow glaze to pool at the base without damaging kiln shelves or breaking off when you take the piece out of the kiln.
