Using Tongs
Before starting make sure there is enough glaze in the container to cover the pot and that the container is large enough to allow you to manoeuvre the tongs and pot.
Grip the pot firmly between the prongs of the tongs. It is important that the grip is not only secure but will enable you to manipulate the pot in the glaze container. Practice the movements needed in the air before actually dipping the pot in the glaze.
Lower the pot into the glaze with the rim tilted slightly upward. This will prevent air being trapped in the pot if the neck is narrower that the rest of the pot.
With a smooth rapid action push the pot down into the glaze.
Hold the pot submerged long enough to build up the required layer of glaze.
Remove the pot smoothly from the glaze, tilting the bottom of the pot upward to allow the glaze to run out of the pot as it is lifted.
Hold the pot over the glaze container with the bottom tilted upward to allow the surplus glaze to collect at the rim and drop into the container. Gently shake off the last drop from the rim (or touch it with a small soft brush already wetted with glaze) and place the pot on a suitable stilt to dry.
