Ordered a sample. Another brand in a store had me liking the matte over the glossy, but for this brand, glossy is superior. This matte tile glaze thinned enough in the center to see the clay color come through. Not brightly, but it means the center has a vague undertone of Terracotta. If you're looking for a non-uniform 2" hex, this may be for you it is not for me.
