Ruby K

Versatile red designed for kiln striking; work in a hot neutral to oxidizing flame for best results.

Outcomes

• Rich red after kiln striking flame: Neutralstrike: KilnRed
  Work in a hot neutral to oxidizing flame, then kiln strike to develop the red color.
• Unstruck — color before kiln strike flame: NeutralNeutral
  Before kiln striking, the glass will not yet display its full red; kiln striking is required to bring out the red.
• Under-developed or pale if not fully struck flame: Oxidizingstrike: KilnOrangeRed
  Work in a hot neutral to oxidizing flame and kiln strike to bring the color to full red; incomplete striking may leave a pale or orange hue.
• Reduced result — reduced flame should be avoided for intended red outcome flame: ReducingGrayBrown
  Reducing the flame is not recommended for this rod; the intended result is achieved only with a neutral to oxidizing flame and kiln strike.
