Mayco Designer Liner 401 BLACK
Designer Liner is a concentrated, clay-based pigment, packaged in a 1.25 oz. squeeze bottle featuring a metal writer tip. The metal tip allows for precise application - almost as accurate and precise as a ball point pen. You can create designs, outline shapes or patterns in your design, create stripes, dots, squiggles & lines, or write words.
It can be applied directly on clay, bisque, or over other glazes. Designer Liner will fire to a matte finish - a clear or transparent glaze (Foundations Sheers, for example) will give it a gloss finish.
Designer Liner can also be applied using a liner brush, such as CB-110 #10/0 liner. Will fire from cone 05/06 up to cone 6.
Product Features & Attributes

- Matte Finish - may require a clear or transparent glaze if a gloss finish is desired.
- Non Toxic, Food Safe. May not be suitable for dinnerware due to surface characteristics.
- 1.25 oz squeeze bottle (includes metal writing tip)
Helpful Hints
- Remove the white cap then gently puncture plastic tip with the metal writer tip.
- After placing the metal tip onto the bottle cap, push the included pin through the small ziptop bag and seal (this makes it easier to keep track of the pin).
- Keep the pin in the metal writer tip when not in use.
- Designer Liner is clay based. As such, it is the nature to dry quickly which can promote clogging in the narrow passages of the metal and or plastic tips.
- Clear or transparent glazing is necessary for gloss finish. Designer Liner will fire matte when no glaze is applied over top.
- Design work could be distorted when applied on top of glazes that have a tendency to move.
- Wipe tip periodically on a damp sponge to keep clean.
- Keep the metal pin to unclog the tip and keep the metal writer tip free from debris.
- If Designer Liner begins to dry in the bottle you can add a few drops of water to reconstitute Designer Liner. Stir and test for proper viscosity. Add water in small amounts to avoid over-thinning the Designer Liner.
- Place some Designer Liner on a tile and use a CB-110 #10/0 Liner Brush for extra fine outlining or detailing.
- Designer Liner is not a dimensional product. If applied too thick or heavy, Designer Liner will crack and possibly pop off.
