Water Slide Transfer Overglaze Decals for Ceramic, Porcelain, Earthenware and Stoneware.
Firing between Cones 018-016/ 1350-1465°F/ 730-800°C.
Once applied these decals need to be fired in a kiln. They cannot be fired in a home oven. These decals work best with light colored glazes.
These decals are food safe with the flux but as the pigment could possibly contain trace amount of lead and cadmium, they might be not food safe with the covercoat only.
Digital Decal Details
- Best suited for photographic type images
- Order minimum 1 sheet
- Printable area is 10.5"x16" or 26,6x40,6cm
- Digital decals are only printed with cyan, magenta or red, yellow, and black mineral pigments. For white or metallic colors you would need to print silkscreen decals.
We offer 2 different color palettes:
- Red Palette which is composed of a Cyan, Bright Red, Bright Yellow and Black. This set is best for illustrations and logos and when a fire truck red or a warm yellow is needed. It does not offer any pink and purple which will turn red and blue.
- Magenta Palette which is very stable and firing at cone 016. This set consists of a Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black offering the widest color gamut of the 2 sets including pink and purple. The color are less vivid than the red set with the red more of a burgundy. Despite this, it is the color palette of choice for photographic images especially when people are involved.
We offer 2 different decal finishes:
- Covercoat: The covercoat is a single layer finish that will burn away during the firing. Depending on the softness of the glaze, the decal will be more or less matte.
- Covercoat + Flux: The flux is a thin layer of glass applied over the decals to protect it and create a glossy finish. Despite the thickness of the flux being paper thin, this finish will leave a slight raised edge wherever you will cut the decals. The softer the glaze on the ware the less obvious it will appear. If you need flux, we usually recommend a full coverage of the ware, or you can also cut the decal close to the edge of the image. We recommend using flux with any outdoor products or dinnerware.

CERAMIC ARTISTS:
- These decals are generally applied as a third firing on top of an already fired glaze. Once applied, these decals need to be fired in a kiln to CONE 018 to CONE 016 (1450°F / 800°C). Once fired, the decals become permanently fused with the glaze, similar to decorative dinnerware.

The following are simply recommendations to get the most from our high resolution printing process.
- 300 dpi resolution will yield the best results. Lower resolution or blurry images will yield a poor decal quality.
- Setup your layout using your favorite design app. Our preferred format is PDF, PSD or TIFF but we will accept any formats.
- We will take any color profile knowing that the best for RGB is “RGB Adobe (1998)” and the best for CMYK is “CMYK SWOP coated”. The CMYK profile will give you a more accurate rendering of what the digital decals can achieve.
- The printable area is 10.5 x 16in or 26,6 x 40,6cm. Fill this area with your designs to maximize the space.
- Image files can be uploaded at time of purchase on the product page. They can also be sent after purchase to info@milestonedecalart.com. If your file is over 20MB you may need to use a free file sharing service like DropBox.com or Google Drive.
