What stage of moisture should the clay be to use this slip successfully?

I just joined Clayshare, today is my first time watching as premium. I have used this slip recipe without mush success I used it on leather hard plate. It fell apart as i tried to use sgraffito on it. What am i doing wrong??
I don't believe this slip was deigned for sgrafitto. But hey, everyone has a different method for making wares.
Here is more info on the recipe I found online. Although minus adding a frit & the zircopax.

How do you reply to my question do you reply to my email at [email protected]
I guess I didn’t realize there was a recipe for slip. What I did was clean my clay after throwing, sieve it and let some of the water evaporate to get the consistency I wanted. Then I added black stain and put it in the squeeze bottle to slip trail with. It slip trails nicely but it doesn’t dry. That part I did not expect. Why is it not drying? I apply it to bisqueware and then bisque fire again. then add a layer of clear glaze and glaze fire. After that Some of the slip has slightly smudged and some slip is fine. Your thoughts please? Thank you.
