Concepts Underglaze for Bisque by Duncan (Mayco)
Concepts were discontinued on September 1, 2022.
See the Mayco Stroke N Coats as they are basically the same.
The first coat is translucent. The second is semi-opaque. The third is opaque. Normal use is to apply 1-3 coats on bisque, let dry and cover with two coats of your favorite clear glaze.
Use them as Majolica paints on top of unfired non-moving opaque white or light colored glaze. No need to clear glaze as Concepts are shiny when fired. Try using them on tile, at cone 6 (on appropriate clay), in a spray bottle, these paints are versatile.

Brant Palley, a native of Albuquerque, began working for the Kings in 1985. With a Bachelor of Fine Arts from UC Irvine and a Master of Fine Arts from Otis Art Institute and Parsons School of Design, along with five years of intensive retail experience in Atlantic City, NJ, Brant was well-prepared to take the reins. The Kings, recognizing his expertise and passion, entrusted the business to Brant, who acquired it from them in 1987. As a potter at heart, Brant is particularly passionate about the clay side of the business, which remains a central focus of New Mexico Clay to this day.
