Non-Stick Lids

A problem with firing pots sometimes is that their lids can get stuck on from the glaze or firing process. To avoid this happening use Vaseline to line the rims of the pot and lid. Best done after applying your glaze and as you are preparing to fire, turn the lid upside down and smear Vaseline around both rims of the lid and the pot.

If your glaze reacts to Vaseline, you can also use other viscous materials including: Glue, Petroleum Jelly or Wax.
