Gloss Glaze: has a glossy finish.
Underglaze: stays exactly where you put it & required a coat of clear to make it glossy.
Matte glaze: has a non-glossy surface--think of the way an egg shell looks.

Closure: How
will you know if your glaze is food safe? Answer: It will say it on the label (Certified Non-Toxic). Most will have a fork & knife symbol to represent “safe for eating.”
